MICROFLUIDIC MIXER AND METHOD OF MIXING FLUID USING THE SAME

摘要

An object of the present invention is to provide a microfluidic mixer having high efficiency and a method of mixing a fluid using the same. To this end, the present invention includes a plurality of inlets through which the fluid is introduced, a mixing unit through which the introduced fluid is mixed, and an outlet through which the mixed fluid is discharged, wherein the mixing unit includes a first channel and a second channel having different widths. A ring-shaped unit in which the inlet and the outlet are symmetrically connected about the X-axis; and an inlet and an outlet at the other end that are arranged to be connected to the annular unit and are connected to the outlet of the immediately preceding annular unit at one end, wherein the portion except for the inlet and the outlet is curved in an arc shape to provide a microfluidic mixer, wherein the inlet part and the outlet part are formed at both ends of the arc-shaped curved shape and include a third channel including a baffle therein, and fluid mixing using the same provide a way According to the present invention, since the fluid can be efficiently mixed at various Reynolds numbers, for example, when applied to the biochemical field, there is an effect of maximizing the efficiency of the process.
