Flow Regimes of Miscible Fluids in a Hele-Shaw Cell

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: The present study investigates the flow dynamics of viscous fluid threads interacting with a less viscous fluid and their stability as they flow through a Hele-Shaw microfluidic cell. We study multiple liquid pairs and identify for the first time several flow regimes, including the well-known Kelvin-Helmholtz instability.
