Abstract

Simulation of microfluidic devices is a great tool for optimizing these devices. For the development of simulation models, it is necessary to ensure a sufficient degree of simulation accuracy. Accuracy is ensured by measuring appropriate values that tell us about the course of the simulation and can also be measured in a real experiment. Measured values will simplify the real situation so that we can develop the model for a specific purpose and measure the values that are relevant to the research. In this article we present the approach in which the data we have gained from simulation are used to improve the quality of data processing from video from a real experiment.
