Hello
I'm looking for references on turbulence in microflows/nanoflows (as in
flows through micro/nanochannels) for writing a review paper as part of
a course. I couldn't find many papers, which I suspect is primarily
because of the fact that turbulence is pretty much nonexistant in
microscales. I doubt if turbulence exist at all in nanoscales, if not
at microscales.
Can somebody provide me some ref about this topic?
For actual turbulence in micro/nanoflows, you won't find it, the
scales are too small.
However, especially for electrically driven microflows, there is a
fair amount of chaotic oscillation that has some similarities to
turbulence. A literature review on "chaotic mixing" would be a good start.
