Numerical Simulation of Boundary-Driven Acoustic Streaming in Microfluidic Channels with Circular Cross-Sections [PDF]
While acoustic streaming patterns in microfluidic channels with rectangular cross-sections have been widely shown in the literature, boundary-driven streaming fields in non-rectangular channels have not been well studied. In this paper, a two-dimensional

Comparing methods for the modelling of boundary-driven streaming in acoustofluidic devices. [PDF]
Numerical simulations of acoustic streaming flows can be used not only to explain the complex phenomena observed in acoustofluidic manipulation devices, but also to predict and optimise their performances. In this paper, two numerical methods based on perturbation theory are compared in order to demonstrate their viability and applicability for ...

Numerical simulation of 3D boundary-driven acoustic streaming in microfluidic devices [PDF]
This article discusses three-dimensional (3D) boundary-driven streaming in acoustofluidic devices. Firstly, the 3D Rayleigh streaming pattern in a microchannel is simulated and its effect on the movement of microparticles of various sizes is demonstrated. The results obtained from this model show good comparisons with 3D experimental visualisations and

Inhomogeneous Fluid Motion Induced by Standing Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW): A Finite Element Study [PDF]
Acoustofluidics has emerged as a transformative technology for contact-free manipulation of microparticles and fluids in microscale systems. Although bulk acoustic waves (BAWs) are known to displace inhomogeneous fluids through acoustic radiation force ...

Acoustic streaming at high acoustic energy densities E_{ac} is studied in a microfluidic channel. It is demonstrated theoretically, numerically, and experimentally with good agreement that frictional heating can alter the streaming pattern qualitatively at high E_{ac} above 400 J/m^{3}.
