项目摘要

Microfluidics is a multidisciplinary technique with applications in several science and engineering disciplines that yields practical design of systems in which small volumes (microliters or less) of fluids can be handled. Typically, gas bubbles or liquid droplets can be moved, mixed, separated or otherwise processed at a micro domain, and in ways that bulk processing simply cannot attain. [Common examples are ink-jet printers, or 'lab-on-chip' analysis systems]. There are several applications to the study of the physics and chemistry of individual, or group aerosol particles or droplets to which microfluidic approaches may be well tasked. Microfluidics allows precise control over droplet size and shape. The chemical composition of generated droplets will be chosen in order to replicate ambient atmospheric aerosol particles. When trapped in a hydrodynamic trap, a holding device, these aerosol mimics will be further examined by microscopy with an attached high-speed camera. Experiments with changing fluid flow rates, and, thus, extensional strain rate on the droplets, along with temperature, will change the environmental conditions experienced by the droplets. Direct educational benefits include the mentoring of graduate and undergraduate students in a multi-disciplinary research group. The project has the potential to foster increased partnerships between academia and industry because the methods used in this project have general applicability.

微流体技术是一种多学科技术，应用于多个科学和工程学科，可产生可处理小体积（微升或更少）流体的系统的实用设计。通常，气泡或液滴可以在微域处移动、混合、分离或以其他方式处理，并且以批量处理根本无法实现的方式。[常见的例子是喷墨打印机或'芯片实验室'分析系统]。有几个应用程序的物理和化学的研究，个别或群体的气溶胶颗粒或液滴，微流控方法可以很好地承担任务。微流体技术允许精确控制液滴大小和形状。将选择产生的液滴的化学成分，以复制周围大气气溶胶颗粒。当被捕获在一个流体动力学陷阱，一个持有设备，这些气溶胶模拟物将进一步检查显微镜与附加的高速相机。改变流体流速的实验，以及因此改变液滴上的拉伸应变速率，沿着改变温度，将改变液滴所经历的环境条件。直接的教育效益包括在多学科研究小组中指导研究生和本科生。该项目有可能促进学术界和工业界之间加强伙伴关系，因为该项目中使用的方法具有普遍适用性。
