This lecture covers the flow regimes in microchannels, mixing by pure diffusion, laminar mixing in a shear field, and the energetic efficiency of mixing. It discusses the mechanisms of stretching, rotation, and engulfment, as well as the prediction of mixing time and comparison with experimental data. The instructor explores the challenges and advantages of mixing in microstructures, emphasizing the importance of achieving faster mixing with minimal energy consumption.
