← ScienceWhich outcome limits maximum laminar flow through a microfluidic channel?
A)Onset of turbulent flow transition✓
B)Increased surface adsorption efficiency
C)Development of stable static charges
D)Exceedance of capillary pressure threshold
💡 Explanation
Turbulent flow limits laminar flow because when the Reynolds number exceeds a critical value, the flow undergoes a transition to turbulence. Therefore, laminar flow is curtailed rather than enhancing surface adsoprtion, electrostatic charges, or pressure effects at the threshold.
