Outline of Final Research Achievements |
There is a strong demand for three-dimensional quantification of fluid flow in a microchannel. In this study, a three-dimensional microfluidic velocimetry by single view with variable measurement depth was developed. An optical control of astigmatism for particle image enables three-dimensional and three-component velocity measurement. An evaluation of the astigmatic imaging was performed. As a proof-of-concept, three-dimensional flow in a microchannel was quantified and the validity was confirmed. Moreover, wall shear stress was measured as an application of the boundary layer evaluation in macroscale flow.
