Over the past few decades, experimental investigations have confirmed that it is not possible to enhance the flow in microfluidics channels due to its laminar flow nature. Reducing the scale of the carrying conduit (e.g. a microchannel) will enable the fluid properties, such as the viscosity and sur...
