Intelligent Micromixer Design

open access: yes, 2022
In this project, we aimed at using machine learning to generate models capable of predicting the mixing index and the pressure drop that occurs in various geometries of 3D micromixers, working at any Reynolds numbers between 1 to 100. These conditions were deemed optimal to ensure the laminar flow profile desired. To achieve this intelligent design, we
