Hydrodynamic resistance is a critical parameter in microfluidics, affecting device functionality and performance. However, quantifying hydrodynamic resistance in microfluidics is a challenge due to many influencing factors and the difficulties associated with the precise measurements of low flow rates (< 10 L/min) and pressure drops (< 5 kPa). This article presents a simple experimental test method for assessing hydrodynamic resistance, correlating with theoretical and numerical calculations. The results demonstrate good agreement between benchtop and theoretical data, suggesting a potential standardized method for assessing hydrodynamic resistance in microfluidic devices.
