Science

Which outcome increases within a laminar flow microfluidic reactor because of diminished viscosity?

A)Decreased diffusion controlled mixing
B)Increased chaotic advection prevalence
C)Elevated slug flow instability
D)Reduced reagent channel contamination

💡 Explanation

Decreased viscosity reduces internal friction, therefore decreases momentum dispersion according to the momentum diffusivity mechanism. This leads to slower mixing due to less intermingling, rather than chaotic flow because decreased viscosity suppresses early transition to turbulence.
