Thermal convection generating chip, thermal convection generating device, and thermal convection generating method
A thermal convection generating device (1) that generates thermal convection of a liquid by heating or cooling the liquid and applying centrifugal force to the liquid, the thermal convection generating device including: a stage (20) to which a thermal convection generating chip (10) is attachable and detachable, the thermal convection generating chip including a disk-like substrate (11) and a thermal convection pathway (14) formed in a surface of the disk-like substrate that is perpendicular to an axis (AX) of the disk-like substrate, and being configured to rotate about the axis of the disk-like substrate to apply centrifugal force to a liquid in the thermal convection pathway; a heat controller (30) that heats or cools a portion of the thermal convection pathway; a motor (40) that drives the thermal convection generating chip to rotate about the axis; and a controller (50) that controls the heat controller and the motor.
