Table 1.
Channel dimensions for the device shown in Fig. 1A. Fluidic resistances (R) were defined by the channel cross-sectional area, length, shape, and fluid viscosity. The viscosity values used for water and silicone oil were 0.89 × 10−6 and 17.8 × 10−6 kPa s, respectively.
| Resistor | Length (mm) | Width (mm) | Depth (mm) | Resistance (kPa s mm−3) | |
