Scientists Achieve Breakthrough in Microscale Turbulence Using Supercritical Fluids

Researchers have successfully created sustained turbulent flow in microscopic channels using supercritical fluids, a phenomenon previously thought impossible at such small scales. The breakthrough, dubbed “Turbulence-On-a-Chip,” could revolutionize microfluidic applications from chemical processing to medical diagnostics. According to reports, the discovery challenges conventional understanding of fluid dynamics in confined spaces.

Revolutionizing Microfluidics with Supercritical Turbulence

Scientists have reportedly achieved what was once considered nearly impossible: creating and sustaining turbulent flow within microscopic channels. According to research published in Scientific Reports, the breakthrough was accomplished using supercritical fluids under high-pressure conditions, opening new possibilities for microfluidic applications ranging from chemical processing to biomedical diagnostics.
