The width 0.02mm of said preliminary hybrid channel, length 0.15mm; The angle of inclination of said elliptical ring is 20 °, and oval ring feedback channel width is 0.033mm, the interior ring lateral radius 0.1mm of elliptical ring, vertical radius 0.2mm, the outer shroud lateral radius 0.15mm of elliptical ring, vertically radius 0.15mm; The width 0.02mm of said exit passageway.
The technical conceive of the utility model is: according to the character of fluid, increase and to contact area, collision, convection current, eddy current between fluid and can strengthen diffusion, the structure that changes micro-mixer helps to strengthen diffusion, fully mixing with geometry.The utility model utilizes the Coanda effect of fluid, and the duct wall that makes fluid be attached to arc forms backflow from bottom to up.Part fluid through the centre is preliminary mix after, flow to both sides and feedback and carry out secondary and mix, so continuous backflow, feedback have increased the length that fluid mixes, and have improved mixing efficiency effectively.
Under micro-scale, the Coanda effect of fluid still works, and the utility model is embodied on two levels the utilization of Coanda effect; The first, when fluid is communicated with the entering hybrid chamber through preliminary hybrid channel, will be partial to a side of hybrid chamber wall by the Coanda effect jet direction; Jet simultaneously also will cause this side reflux amount, so under the promotion that refluxes, will be partial to opposite side greater than the opposite side capacity of returns; And then causing the opposite side capacity of returns to increase, jet returns an original side again partially, forms vibration; Move in circles, improve mixing effect of fluid; The second, the curve of oval ring feedback channel itself has utilized Coanda effect, strengthen to reflux, and be that capacity of returns significantly improves than other backflow blenders.Utilize this character of fluid; We have designed a kind of novel reverse-flow type micro-mixer; More fully mix through the fluid that repeatedly mixes and collide in the microchannel, in limited space, realize repeatedly mixing having increased mixing length, and then improve the efficient of mixing.
The beneficial effect of the utility model mainly shows: the porch fluidic has guaranteed the generation of Coanda effect, and fluid alternately is attached on little hybrid chamber two side, produces the backflow effect; The oval ring feedback channel of the left and right sides further utilizes Coanda effect to produce powerful backflow.Backflow is equivalent to prolong the length of hybrid channel, helps to strengthen diffusion; About alternately depend on generation vibration can upset the laminar flow order, help abundant mixing.When inlet flow rate being 0.05ml/min (Re ≈ 7), backflow is 1.25%; When 0.1ml/min (Re 14), backflow is 3.49%; 0.2ml/min (Re 28) and 0.3ml/min (Re 42) reflux ratio can reach 5.09% and 8.9%.To reynolds number Re is that the efficient that 7,14,28,42 single micro-mixers mix is respectively 48.1%, 89.2%, 95.2%, 96.8%.Contrast finds that under similarity condition, the micro-mixer reflux ratio and the composite rate of the utility model all are significantly improved, and applied widely, and difficult the obstruction is simple in structure, is easy to processing.

With reference to Fig. 1～Fig. 4; A kind of novel reverse-flow type micro-mixer comprises hybrid chamber 1, and said hybrid chamber 1 is communicated with access road 2 and exit passageway 3 respectively; Said access road 1 is at least two; At least two access roades 1 are communicated with preliminary hybrid channel 4 respectively, and said preliminary hybrid channel 4 is fluidic architecture, and said preliminary hybrid channel 4 is communicated with the inlet of hybrid chamber 1; Said hybrid chamber 1 inlet both sides all are provided with oval ring feedback channel 5; One end of said oval ring feedback channel 5 is communicated with the top of hybrid chamber 1, and the other end of said oval ring feedback channel 5 is communicated with the bottom of hybrid chamber 1, and the outlet of the lower end of said hybrid chamber 1 is communicated with said exit passageway 3.
The width that is communicated with the place of said oval ring feedback channel 5 two ends and hybrid chamber 1 is greater than the width of said oval ring feedback channel 5.
Said oval ring feedback channel 5 is inclined to set, and the inclination angle is 15～30 °.
The central authorities of the bottom of said hybrid chamber 1 are provided with ellipse and stop, the other end of said feedback channel is arranged in the downside that said ellipse stops, the outlet of the lower end of hybrid chamber be positioned at that said ellipse stops under.
The width 0.02mm of said preliminary hybrid channel 4, length 0.15mm; The angle of inclination of said elliptical ring is 20 °, and oval ring feedback channel width is 0.033mm, the interior ring lateral radius 0.1mm of elliptical ring, vertical radius 0.2mm, the outer shroud lateral radius 0.15mm of elliptical ring, vertically radius 0.15mm; The width 0.02mm of said exit passageway.
In the present embodiment, the reverse-flow type micro-mixer mainly is made up of four parts, like Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, comprises access road, fluid hybrid chamber, both sides oval ring feedback channel and exit passageway.Wherein, access road is the passage that fluid gets into micro-mixer, utilizes pipeline to be connected with little valve, Micropump usually; In order to strengthen Coanda effect, preliminary hybrid channel is designed to fluidic architecture, and the aspect ratio at A point place is big more; The viscous force of fluid can weaken thereupon, and Coanda effect is obvious more.Fluid can alternately be attached on the conduit wall of both sides after A flows out, and when fluid was flowed through elliptical ring passage downside, Coanda effect was had an effect once more, and fluid is attached to the feedback channel inwall and upwards flows.At this moment, B point place and C point place form a negative pressure differential, force fluid by the C point feedback channel arrival B point of flowing through; Thereby form to reflux, the fluid velocity direction through the S1 face is for to the right, under the impetus of backflow; The opposite side fluid depends on another sidewall; Continue to produce reflux, the fluid velocity through the S2 face so alternately reciprocally depends on and can produce vibration and the promotion mixing that refluxes for left.Mixed exit passageway is the position that the fluid that mixed flows out, and detects the mixing efficiency that the fluid composition here just can record fluid usually, and it also is a fluidic, makes fluid through wherein accelerate to required speed and gets into next device.Two places use Coanda effect in the design, and the backflow ratio of generation is bigger, is superior to other reflow type micro-mixers.
Inlet and fluidic channel are straight channel, and inlet converges back jet duct width 0.02mm, length 0.15mm; Assurance is bigger from the linear velocity that the A point flows out, thereby Coanda effect takes place, and the both sides feedback channel is made up of the angle symmetry that two elliptical rings tilt certain; The angle of inclination is 20 °, and the feedback channel width is 0.033mm, oval interior ring lateral radius 0.1mm; Vertical radius 0.2mm; The vertical radius 0.15mm of oval outer shroud lateral radius, the outlet fluid is converged width 0.02mm by the fluid in tributary, both sides and the hybrid chamber.C point place width is wide than the return flow line among Fig. 1, guarantees to reflux preferably effect.The thickness of whole blender is 0.15mm.

Size to Fig. 2 institute mark is carried out emulation, and when reynolds number Re was 7, inlet flow rate was 0.05ml/min.In the exit is the design of fluidic, and it is maximum that the flow velocity in exit reaches, near 0.4m/s.Through this situation is calculated, drawing at this moment, reflux ratio is 1.25%.According to similar method, successively to reynolds number Re=14,28,42,56,70 situation are carried out emulation, press corresponding proportion simultaneously and enlarge inlet flow rate, can get various inlet flow rates and the reflux ratio relation is as shown in Figure 3.
Causing the not miscible main cause of microfluid is the low reynolds number that low flow velocity causes, and whether one of rational two standard are mixing low reynolds number under therefore to estimate a micro-mixer, another be mixed effect how.Hang down flow velocity its feasibility of mix proof of flow pattern micro-mixer next time through ANSYS emulation.
The uniformity coefficient that the effect of micro-mixer is just mixed is represented with the concentration or the mass fraction of fluid components usually.Can calculate reynolds number Re according to the computing formula of mixed effect and be respectively 7,14,28,42,56,70 o'clock, the mixing efficiency relation of micro-mixer was shown in Fig. 4 curve.
