Microfluidic cartridges for agglutination reactions are provided. The cartridges include a microfluidic reaction channel with at least two intake channels, one for an antigen-containing fluid and the other for an antibody-containing fluid, conjoined to a reaction channel modified by incorporation of a downstream flow control channel. At low Reynolds Number, the two input streams layer one on top of the other in the reaction channel and form a flowing, unmixed horizontally-stratified laminar fluid diffusion (HLFD) interface for an extended duration of reaction. Surprisingly, the design, surface properties, and flow regime of microfluidic circuits of the present invention potentiate detection of antibody mediated agglutination at the stratified interface. Antigen:antibody reactions involving agglutination potentiated by these devices are useful in blood typing, in crossmatching for blood transfusion, and in immunodiagnostic agglutination assays, for example.

A method including disposing a first end plate adjacent to a second end plate, wherein the first end plate and second end plate each define a pattern of apertures. The first end plate is aligned with the second end plate such that the pattern of apertures in the first end plate is substantially aligned with the pattern of apertures in the second end plate. The method includes placing an end portion of each of a plurality of micro tubes in contact with the first end plate, the micro tubes being substantially vertically disposed and substantially perpendicular to a top surface of the first end plate, so as to place the micro tubes on the first end plate, and vibrating at least one of the micro tubes while the micro tubes are on the first end plate, thereby causing the micro tubes to insert into and through respective aligned apertures of the patterns of apertures in the first end plate and the second end plate. The method further includes separating the first end plate from the second end plate while the micro tubes extend therethrough, until the first end plate and the second end plate are disposed proximate to respective end portions of the micro tubes extending therethrough, and affixing each end portion of the micro tubes to a respective end plate, thereby forming a pathway in a micro tube heat exchanger component for the flow of an internal fluid to be heated or cooled by external flow of an external fluid.

The invention discloses an integrated combined heat exchanger. The integrated combined heat exchanger comprises a tube box, a shell and a U-shaped heat exchange tube bundle. The tube box is divided bytube pass partition plates into four tube passes, and a tube winding tube bundle is arranged. The shell is connected with the rear end of the tube box through a tube plate, and a tube pass dividing partition plate with the length smaller than the length of the shell is transversely arranged in the shell. The U-shaped heat exchange tube bundle comprises overheating section tube bundles and evaporation section tube bundles, all of which are arranged in an overheating section area and an evaporation section area in a one-to-one correspondence manner, the total length of the evaporation section tube bundles is equal to the length of the tube pass dividing partition plate, and the length of straight tube sections of the overheating section tube bundles is equal to the length of the tube pass dividing partition plate. The vertical distance between a row of tube bundles on the tops of the evaporation section tube bundles and the tube pass dividing partition plate is not smaller than 125 mm,at least one row of heat exchange tubes in the evaporation section tube bundles are higher than the liquid level in the shell, and the vertical distance between the row of heat exchange tubes and thenext row of heat exchange tubes is larger than the normal tube distance of the evaporation section tube bundles. The heat exchanger can be used for multiple occasions, and the utilization rate and heat transfer efficiency are improved.

The invention provides a low-Reynolds-number wing section matched with a full-wing solar unmanned aerial vehicle. The low-Reynolds-number wing section is characterized in that the relative thickness of the wing section is 11%-13%, the maximum camber of the wind section is 2%-4%, and a chordwise position with the maximum camber is 25%-30%; the wing section has a single bent outline in a 70% chordwise range from a front edge. With a full-aircraft matching design, the checking of pneumatic characteristics of a pair of wing sections is finished by checking the corresponding pneumatic characteristics of the wing sections and applying the two wing sections to the full-wing solar unmanned aerial vehicle, and the low-Reynolds-number wing section shows good pneumatic characteristics and engineering enforceability and can meet application demands on low Reynolds number, high lift force and lift-to-drag ratio and large relative thickness of the full-wing solar unmanned aerial vehicle.
