Description:
Author(s): Birendra Jha, Luis Cueto-Felgueroso, and Ruben Juanes We study mixing of two fluids of different viscosity in a microfluidic channel or porous medium. We show that the synergetic action of alternating injection and viscous fingering leads to a dramatic increase in mixing efficiency at high Péclet numbers. Based on observations from high-resolution simu... [Phys. Rev. Lett. 111, 144501] Published Tue Oct 01, 2013
