Thermocapillary actuation of droplet in a planar microchannel
A study on thermocapillary actuation of liquid droplet in a planar microchannel has been carried out by both theoretical modeling and experimental characterization. The driving temperature gradients are provided by four heaters at the channel boundaries. In the modeling, the temperature distribution...
