Netflow: Computer-Aided Design (CAD) for Chemical Transport in Microfabricated Fluid Interconnects

Abstract

This effort was aimed at developing Computer-Aided Design (CAD) tools for the analysis of microfluidic networks. The main objective was to develop software tools for the analysis of the diverse transport phenomena that are present in these systems - these include pressure driven, electrokinetic and diffusive transport. All original milestones were met and the NetFlow software has been released commercially. All software tools developed under this effort were experimentally validated.
