Abstract

Abstract: This paper is concerned with the experimental investigation of jets formation in a classic microchannel with low aspect ratio a/r=0.125. The confined jets are obtained in a Y-shaped microchannel using isopropyl alcohol and ethanol in a viscous outer medium represented by mineral oil. In the cases with high flow rate of the inner jets the interface has an important contribution on the velocity distribution inside the jet.
