| Abstract | To date, miniaturization of fluid handling and fluid analysis devices in the medicine engineering has been emerging in the interdisciplinary research field of micro-fluidics, as a result of miniaturization of the detective device to allow parallelization as well as to reduce analysis time and sample volume. Micro-total-analysis-system ( μ -TAS) researches aimed at developing miniaturized and integrated ``lab-on-a-chip'' devices for biochemical analysis applications. Droplet-based micro-mixer is the one of the key components in the developing of μ -TAS. Numerical approach on the dynamic formation of water droplets in a T-type microchannel with a 200 μ m × 50 μ m rectangular cross section and 1000 μ m long was performed in present study. The transient three-dimensional two-phase flow is solved using computational fluid dynamics in conjunction with a volume of fluid (VOF) method. Simulations of the processes of individual droplet emergence, growth, deformation, detachment and movement in the straight microchannel are performed to explicitly track the evaluation of liquid-liquid interface. The effects of contact angle values, volume flow ratio and Ca number on the departure diameter and frequency of droplets were systematically conducted to build empirical correlations. Parametric studies highlight the importance of various factors affecting the formation of liquid droplet from the junction of microchannels. Besides, inspection on the flow pattern within single droplet reveals the existence of counter-rotating vortices. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
