Abstract
Velocity fields of blood flow in a micro channel were investigated experimentally using a micro-PIV velocity field measurement technique. The results were compared with those obtained for DI water under the same experimental solution. Diluted blood flow shows substantial variation of velocity in the central region of a micro-channel due to the presence of red blood cells, compared with DI water.
