| Micro and nano-fluidic mixing nowadays is a very important area in research due to its crucial role in new technologies and applications such as biomedical and biochemical synthesis. Due to the low velocities associated with microscale flow, it is often very difficult to mix fluids in a rapid and homogeneous manner. One of the methods of enhancing fluid mixing is to obstruct the fluid flow using vanes or panels known as baffles. In this paper, a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) approach is used to study the effect of baffles on the mixing performance in a passive micromixer. The numerical method is verified by comparing its obtained results with experiments and numerical results published earlier. Rectangular, semi-circular and triangular baffles have been considered for investigating the effects of baffle geometry on mixing performance. Furthermore, the effects of channel inlet angle and baffles offset in mixing performance are studied. As the results show, there is a two-fold increase in mixing performance in the baffled cases as opposed to the simple case. | ||
