Dynamic Behavior of Gas Bubbles and Droplets in Magnetic Fluids in Microfluidic Chips of Various Configuration in Inhomogeneous Magnetic Field

Droplet formation in microchannels has a large number of applications such as microdosers and gas meters. The paper investigates the effect of the wettability of the walls of a microfluidic chip on the for generation of microdrops in the channel. It is shown that the flow speed and value of magnetic field strength have an effect on the size of droplets and bubbles formed in a ferrofluid in a microfluidic chip.
