Designing a 3D-printed flow chamber

Designing a 3D-printed flow chamber Fluid Mechanics

I’m working on a small, water-tight chamber to measure how flow affects feeding kinematics in Vorticella, a single-celled protist that adheres to surfaces. There are some real design constraints, namely that it must be small enough to accommodate the relatively short (10mm) working distance of the objective lens we’re using. I designed a prototype in Solidworks. The clear interrogation area […]
