TL;DR: In this article, a non-linear Joule heating effect induced on an electroosmotic flow with patterned surface charges driven inside of a slit microchannel is analyzed, where the movement of the fluid is controlled by placing electro-thermal forces, which are induced through an imposed longitudinal electric field, E0, and the wall electric potential generated by electrodes inserted along the surface of the microchannel wall.

TL;DR: In this article, the dispersion coefficient of a passive solute in a steady-state pure electro-osmotic flow (EOF) of a viscoelastic liquid, whose rheological behavior follows the simplified Phan-Thien-Tanner (sPTT) model, along a parallel flat plate microchannel, is studied.

TL;DR: In this paper, the pulsatile electroosmotic flow (PEOF) of a Newtonian fluid in a circular microchannel with slippage at the surface is theoretically analyzed.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a theoretical analysis for the mass transfer of an electroneutral solute in a concentric-annulus microchannel driven by an oscillatory electroosmotic flow (OEOF) of a fluid whose behavior follows the Maxwell model.

TL;DR: In this paper, the conjugate heat transfer process in an electro-osmotic flow of a Newtonian liquid is studied asymptotically and the analysis includes Joule heating effects by taking into account the temperature dependent viscosity and electrical conductivity of the electrolyte solution.
