A groove on a plate for fluid flow. The main parameters of flow fields or flow channels are its shape, depth, width, spacing and length. The most common flow fields or flow channels shapes are parallel straight grooves and parallel serpentine grooves. The longer the flow fields or flow channels, the smaller the cross-sectional area of the flow fields or flow channels, the greater the resistance to fluid flow. With the same length and cross-sectional area, the resistance of serpentine flow fields or flow channels to fluid flow is greater than that of straight flow fields or flow channels. The greater the resistance of the flow fields or flow channels to the fluid, the greater the differential pressure that the required fan or compressor can produce.
