Abstract :
T mixers are widely used in protein folding experiments. In this paper, numerical simulation method was used to characterize the mixing performances of two T mixers. The results showed that these mixers could achieve efficient solution mixing from tens of microseconds to several hundreds of microseconds. It is concluded that numerical simulation will aid further optimization of mixer design.
