Abstract

Investigation of the entrainment of fluids induced by a wavy deformation along walls in a confined falt-plane microchannel is conducted by using the relaxed Navier-Stokes model with velocity- slip boundary conditions. Both no-slip and slip flow cases are presented with the former ones matched with the previous results. Flow patterns tuned by critical reflux values a₀ and Reynolds number are demonstrated especially for the free pumping case. a₀ decreases due to slip-flow effects after we compared them with no-slip cases.
