Micro fluid devices enable the transport nano liters fluids in micro scale channels. Very devices built in this case, for example genome sequencing or using micro droplet as chemical reactors. In this paper, we introduce a model of micro channel in order to investigate the dynamics of micro droplets. This model is derived of level set method. Further more, we investigate pressure distribution around micro droplet motion in this convergence-divergence micro channel. This device can be used in many applications for example it can be considered as convergence-divergence digital switch in digital micro fluidic.
