Micro- and Nano-fluidics
Structures of m/nm scale
Devices (pumps, valves, mixers, etc.)
Advantages:
• Reduced consumption of reagents
• Reduced power consumption
• Shorter reaction times
• Parallel processing
• Batch fabrication
• Integrated systems (Lab-on-a-chip)
• Portable devices
• New concepts / functionalities

• Surface force rules
Surface force (e.g. tension, viscous friction)
Volume force (e.g. weight, buoyancy, inertial)
• Viscosity rules
Low Reynolds number:
Laminar flow (no turbulence),
No inertia effects
• Diffusion rules ( )
Low Peclet number:
