I've actually found that there are shockingly few resources (well, videos, at least) that communicate the reason we use microfluidics at all! I've always thought they were interesting, but pointless, but this has helped me understand that my macroscopic intuition was faulty! Great video!

@geraldmalone3915 3 года назад

It is extraordinary that such fundamental laws of physics can be explained to interested lay viewers is a succinct and comprehensible way. Bravo!!! How have I lived until now without knowing all this?

Hi there everyone! We're going back to the origins of the Lutetium Project with this exploration of the physics at the microscale. This video is actually among the very first ones we shot, more than a year ago! It's the first chapter of a three-part series. But before jumping into the actual microfluidics, we felt the need to explain from a theoretical point of view why making stuff smaller is compelling. This is why there are less experiments than usual in this video. No worries though, for the next part of the series we're going to go to the Pierre-Gilles de Gennes Institute for Microfluidics and show you very neat experiments! We hope you enjoy the video ;-)

Excellent production and presentation! Why don't you guys have a million subs? You should have!

Do you know of any good resources for doing low cost microfluidics experiments at home? I'm super excited for this series, keep up the good work!

Dylan Honors you could use shrink wrap

@hassanalhakeem5664 5 лет назад

very interesting

The chemical computing community should try to embrace microfluidics. That would allow the emerging field of chemical computing to advance at a much greater pace.

Why is heat loss a function of L? Not L2? As in function of surface area?

@cheNafisaIslam 6 лет назад

Okay. Hadn't thought of that. I guess in my mind I was thinking of the convectional losses. Hence the L2. Also high school biology knowledge: smaller the animal the larger the surface area-volume ratio. But I guess whichever way you look at it smaller animals need to be careful about there heat losses :)
