Abstract

It is well-established that the inertial effect in microfluidics has a significant impact on particle and cell cluster separation. The outcomes are particularly dependent on the channel geometry and the particle and cell suspensions introduced into the channel. In this study, we investigate various combinations related to the size of a curved channel, fluid velocity, and the size and elasticity of clusters. We quantitatively and qualitatively evaluate the behavior of the examined clusters with respect to separation potential. Computational results suggest specific combinations of flow parameters leading to efficient particle and cell cluster separation.
