What is Flui'Device ?
FLUI’DEVICE is an online platform designed to assist in the design and validation of microfluidic structures. Its drag and drop approach allows to design in an instant complex structures and is only limited by the user’s imagination.
FLUI’DEVICE is not a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) platform. The results it provides are derived from a combination of analytical equations and correction factors sourced from scientific publications. Our team of experts at Eden Tech is constantly striving to enhance these models.

Start Using Flui'device
Flui’device is currently in beta. This means there is still a lot of room for improvement. This also means it is currently 100% free, and you get to help decide which functionalities and features our developers need to focus on!
You’ll discover that Flui’device is user-friendly, making it easy for everyone, even those without prior experience in microfluidics, to commence drawing. We also provide templates of commonly used designs to help you learn about microfluidics and guide you through the design process.
Drag & Drop
- Select a Block from a list of standard Microfluidic geometries
- Simply drag the block from the list onto the grid
- Click the block to reveal the Editor
- Edit and Resize by dragging or entering exact values
Build
- Drag your blocks and snap them together
- No need to manually edit every block, automatic resizing adjusts the sections for you
- Choose your default settings of channel shape (e.g., rectangular, elliptical) and channel size
- Use shortcuts to create devices a large as your imagination
Validate
- Once your design is complete, click “Validate”
- Flui’Device calculator lets choose between pressure or flow injection, as well as your fluid properties
- Select a display to visualize flow and pressure distribution
- Observe your results in real time as you change the inputs
Export & Share
- Save your design as a template and reuse it later
- Export your blueprint and import it on you next visit
- Visualize your design in 3D and export .STL file for device fabrication or modeling software!
- Share your ideas and designs. Get the word out!
