β¦ Synopsis
We performed axisymmetric r-z simulations to clarify the structure formation of the circular hydraulic jump. The transition from a type I to a type II jump, which was induced by changing the depth of the fluid far away from the jet in the laboratory experiment, was investigated numerically. We found that the transition is associated with a rise in pressure beneath the surface immediately after the hydraulic jump. This result shows that the hydrostatic assumption used in most of the theoretical studies may not be appropriate for the formation of a type II jump.

## Abstract The mixing of fluids in a microchannel is numerically investigated using threeβdimensional NavierβStokes equations. The microchannel has circular mixing chambers that are designed to create a selfβcirculating flow that operates at low Reynolds numbers. The investigations have been perfo
