Hydrodynamic Flow Focusing

75 mm25 mmInlet 1Inlet 2Inlet 3OutletSCHEMATIC · NOT TO SCALE

A platform for narrowing an inlet stream using lateral flows in a shared channel. Focusing depends on flow ratios and fluid properties as well as geometry.

Nominal footprint75 × 25 mm
MaterialPDMS + Glass

Applications & considerations

Hydrodynamic focusing, controlled liquid contact and formulation development. Numbered inlets keep the design open to different uses.

Technical validation notes

Pressure limit, port diameter, tubing standard, minimum feature size and surface-treatment shelf life are to be validated. Geometry changes may require new masks/masters.
