Abstract

Junction point pressure changes during droplet formation in Y-junction microchannels with differed Y-angles, wetting property and capillary number of the liquid by using a three dimensional numerical simulation. The pressure of the junction point fluctuates throughout the droplet formation process, and it can be used to depict exactly and directly different stages of droplet in microchannels. And the pressure of junctions with different Y-angles of microchannel, different contact angles of dispersed phase with the surface, and different capillary numbers of continuous phase could thus be investigated via the droplet formation mechanism.
