Figure 10

Demonstration of the flow pattern and mixing efficiency with respect to the pillar diameter (Dp) in the slanted configuration. Streamlines passing through the pillars for (A) \(D_{p} = 125\;\upmu{\text{m}}\) and (B) \(D_{p} = 50 \;\upmu\text{m}\). Dye concentration for (C) \(D_{p} = 125\;\upmu{\text{m}}\) and (D) \(D_{p} = 50\;\upmu{\text{m}}\). Magnified view of the velocity vectors through the pillars for (E) \(D_{p} = 125\;\upmu{\text{m}}\) and (F) \(D_{p} = 50 \;\upmu\text{m}\). The reference vectors (green) show 0.1 m/s.
