ScholarBank@NUS Repository. https://doi.org/10.1109/SENSOR.2009.5285889 | Abstract: | We have demonstrated the ability to increase fluid flow rates in microchannels using magnetic nanoparticles that are suspended in the fluid. A magnetic circuit was fabricated to generate a magnetic field gradient and results showed that for |▽B| ∼ 3 T/m, the fluid velocity near the channel edge increased 30 μm/sec. At |▽B| ∼ 5 T/m, the fluid velocity increased 10 - 80 μm/sec from near the edge to the center of the channel. ©2009 IEEE. | Source Title: | TRANSDUCERS 2009 - 15th International Conference on Solid-State Sensors, Actuators and Microsystems | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/70860 | ISBN: | 9781424441938 | DOI: | 10.1109/SENSOR.2009.5285889 |
