This paper outlines an approximate solution for determining the pressure drop of fully- developed, laminar, single-phase flow in microchannels of arbitrary cross-section. Using a “bottom-up” approach, it is shown that for constant fluid properties and flow rate in fixed cross-section channels, the Poiseuille number is only a function of geometrical characteris- tics of the cross-section, i.e., perimeter, area, and polar moment of inertia. The model is validated with experimental data for rectangular, trapezoidal, and triangular microchan- nels. The model is also compared against numerical results for a wi
