An apparatus for evaluating scientific phenomena by feeding liquid to a
minute channel, which is inexpensive, imposes little environmental load
and enables advanced technology to be easily enjoyed and can eliminate
experimental failures due to the clogging of the minute channel with a
bubble, is provided. Before starting the experiment with the experimental
liquid, the preparatory step of removing air in the minute channel by
vigorously injecting inert dummy liquid which does not react with the
experimental liquid into the minute channel and thereby filling the
minute channel with the dummy liquid is carried out. If one round of
preparatory step proves insufficient to wholly remove the air in the
minute channel and a bubble is found in the dummy liquid, the step will
be repeated until no bubble is found any longer in the dummy liquid.
Next, the experiment is started by supplying the experimental liquid to
inlet side liquid reservoirs and causing liquid feeding device to let the
dummy liquid filling the minute channel flow to outlet side liquid
reservoirs.
