Assessing Hydrodynamic resistance in Microfluidics: A Case Study - datasets

<p><strong><span>Abstract: </span></strong><span>Hydrodynamic resistance is a critical parameter in microfluidics, affecting device functionality and performance.</span><span> However, quantifying hydrodynamic resistance in microfluidics is a challenge due to many influencing factors and the difficulties associated with the precise measurements of low flow rates (&lt; 10 </span><span><span>m</span></span><span>L/min) and pressure drops (&lt; 5 kPa). This article presents a simple experimental test method for assessing hydrodynamic resistance, correlating with theoretical and numerical calculations. The results demonstrate good agreement between benchtop and theoretical data, suggesting a potential standardized method for assessing hydrodynamic resistance in microfluidic devices.</span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><span>In the files attached: Dataset</span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong><span>Funding:</span></strong><span> This project (20NMR02 MFMET) has received funding from the EMPIR programme co-financed by the Participating States and from the European Union&rsquo;s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme.
