Controlling Of Immiscible Liquids Fluid In A Capillary Reactor - From Continuous To Segmented Flow

Experimental variation of the droplets form in the flow of immiscible fluids in a capillary with the inner diameter of 0,9 mm is presented. The possibility of the transition from continuous to segmented flow by varying the velocity of precursors and carrier liquids is demonstrated. It is shown that the rate of variation of one precursor in respect to other makes it possible to vary the ratio of mixing components. Simulation results for T-shaped mixer in COMSOL Multiphysics software are also presented.
