Dean flow velocity of viscoelastic fluids in curved microchannels

Curved microchannels take advantage of inertial and Dean drag forces to achieve size-based separation of particles and cells. Despite the reported numerical and experimental correlations for Dean velocity (VDe) of Newtonian fluids, comprehensive studies and correlations are still required for the fl...
