Abstract:To alleviate the problem of low flow rates of synthetic jet piezoelectric pumps for liquid medium, a double piezoelectric synthetic jet micropump (DPSJM) is proposed. DPSJM generates pressure change in the pump chamber by the high voltage vibration of the double piezoelectric actuators. Theoretical models are used to analyze the factors affecting the performance of DPSJM. The flow field is analyzed by using the finite element method in the jet chamber, and the prototype is built and tested. The results show th… Show more
The need for flow control is widely recognized in various fields of technological applications such as fluid dynamics, atomization, heat transfer, and others [...]
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
