A micro fluid actuator driven by electromagnetic force at MEMS(Micro Electro Mechanical System) level has been designed. The operation of the actuator was simulated in three steps. First, fluid flow analysis has been performed to determine the actuator load. With the load, dynamic behavior of the actuator structure has been analysed. Finally, fluid-structure interaction analysis has been performed to predict the performance of the actuator. To avoid excessive amount of computation, axisymmetric and plane strain 2-D models were used.

본 논문에서는 압전 작동기로 구동되는 무밸브 마이크로 펌프의 펌프 성능을 계산하였다. 선행연구에서 개발된 마이크로 펌프는 4층의 경량 압전 복합재료 작동기, PDMS로 된 챔버와 2개의 디퓨져로 이루어져 있다. 유한요소 해석은 압전 영역, 구조 영역 및 유체 영역을 완전 연성하여 수행되었다. 구조 및 압전 영역의 해석은 ANSYS를 사용하였으며, 유체영역의 해석은 ANSYS CFX를 사용하여 수행하였다. 작동 주파수가 10 Hz와 40 Hz인 경우에 대한 해석을 수행하여 작동 주파수가 유동 특성에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 또한 300 Hz까지의 유동 해석을 통하여 작동 주파수에 따른 유량을 계산하였다.

A numerical analysis has been conducted for flow characteristics and performance of a micropump with piezodisk and MHD(Magnetohydrodynamics) fluid. Various micro systems which could not be considered in the past have been recently growing with the development of MEMS(Micro Electro Mechanical System) and micro machining technology. Especially, micropumps, essential part of micro fluidic devices, are being lively studies by many researchers. In the present study, the piezo electric micropump with electromagnetic resistance for electrically conducting fluids is considered. The prescribed grid deformation method is used for the displacement of the membrane. The change of the performance of the micropump and flow characteristics of the electrically conducting fluid with the magnitude of the magnetic fields, duct size, the position of the inlet and outlet duct are investigated in the present study.

In this study a numerical analysis has been conducted for the flow characteristics and pumping performance of a piezoelectric-based micropump with electromagnetic resistance exerted on electrically conducting fluid. Here, electromagnetic resistance is alternately applied at the inlet and outlet with alternately applied magnetic fields in association with the reciprocal membrane motion of the piezoelectric-based micropump. A model of Prescribed Deformation is used for the description of the membrane motion. The internal flow characteristics and pumping performance are investigated with the variation of magnetic flux density, tube size, displacement of membrane and the frequency of the membrane. It turns out that the current micropump has a wide range of pumping flow rate compared with diffuser-nozzle based micropumps.
