We investigate the flow resistance of a droplet trapped at a constriction in a microcavity located at a microchannel bifurcation as a function of system parameters including capillary number, drop confinement, and viscosity ratio. Using a combination of experiments and volume-of-fluid numerical simulations, we measure the hydrodynamic resistance of the trapped drop and connect it to drop deformation...
The transport of confined droplets in fluidic networks can lead to complex spatiotemporal dynamics, precluding full control of the position of droplets in the network. Here, we report the design of a model‐based feedback controller that can actively regulate droplet positions in a network. We specifically consider droplet dynamics in a microfluidic loop where a main channel splits into two and recombines...
