The proposed micromixer is designed with non-aligned inlet channels and spatially repeating 3D mixing units with mixing chambers & sub-channel having alternate bends to stir the flow. A variance based mixing index was used to compute the degree of mixing of fluids. A characterization methodology was employed to study the effect of various design parameters. A comparison of mixing performance was performed between proposed micromixer and 3D serpentine micromixer.

E Present study proposes a novel design of passive micromixer based on the concept of offset inlets, and
split and recombination. The proposed micromixer is designed with non-aligned inlet channels and
spatially repeating 3D mixing units with mixing chambers & sub-channel having alternate bends to stir
the flow. A variance based mixing index was used to compute the degree of mixing of fluids. A
characterization methodology was employed to study the effect of various design parameters. A
comparison of mixing performance was performed between proposed micromixer and 3D serpentine
micromixer. The proposed micromixer gives excellent performance over a wide range of Reynolds
number covered in the study.
