TLDR
In this paper, pressure driven liquid flow through round and square microchannels fabricated from fused silica and stainless steel was investigated and pressure drop data were used to characterize the friction factor for channel diameters in the range 15-150 μm and over a Reynolds number range 8-2300.About:

Fluid flow and heat transfer in wavy microchannels
TL;DR: In this paper, Wang et al. used the Poincare section to analyze the fluid mixing in three-dimensional wavy microchannels with rectangular cross-sections and found that the quantity and the location of the vortices may change along the flow direction, leading to chaotic advection.

Viscous dissipation effects in microtubes and microchannels
Junemo Koo,Clement Kleinstreuer +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effects of viscous dissipation on the temperature field and ultimately on the friction factor have been investigated using dimensional analysis and experimentally validated computer simulations using three common working fluids, i.e., water, methanol and iso-propanol, in different conduit geometries.
