Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated the effect of the surface microstructure on inlet and flow resistance of microchannel in order to create wall surfaces that can control the resistance. Experimental results revealed the following. Flow Visualization results showed that triplet lines and gas-liquid interface behaviors greatly changed due to the shape and dimension of microstructure and wettability. These behaviors were roughly divided into four patterns, which pattern was determined by the mean flow, the velocity of the triplet line, and the shape of microstructure. We proposed a new method of transporting sediment particles by using the unsteadiness of the triple lines on the hydrophobic surface. By using a wall with a fine hydrophilic network structure, laminar drag reduction was obtained.
