A When the size of gap is increased from 400 μm to 800 μm in size, the tendency of decreasing CBP is similar in experimental and theoretical values. B CBP increases with increasing number of sides of regular polyhedral in all sizes, and it is confirmed that the effect of shape decreases as gap size increases. C Based on CBP data, shape factors (k) were calculated for regular polygon shapes, which numerical values is used in designing other microfluidic 3D mesh structure.
