  • Publication number: 20160178077
    Abstract: Provided is a fluid flow device including a flow passage structure including in the interior a micro-channel and an escape flow passage for allowing a fluid to escape from the micro-channel. The micro-channel includes a folded-back flow passage portion that allows the fluid to flow upward before allowing the same to flow downward. The folded-back flow passage portion includes a top portion disposed at the highest position of the folded-back flow passage portion and an upward flow passage portion and a downward flow passage portion with the top portion as a boundary therebetween that allow the fluid to flow upward and downward, respectively, and the escape flow passage is connected to the top portion of the folded-back flow passage portion.
