21세기에 가장 시급하게 확보되어야 하는 기술은 BT(Biotechonolgy)와 NT(Nano technology)를 접목시키는 기술이다. 특히, 이들을 종합한 MEMS 에 관한 연구는 가장 광범위한 분야에서 활발하게 이루어지고 있어 그 기술적 가치가 점차 중요시되고 있다. 본 연구는 Simulation을 통하여 Bio-MEMS 기술에서 사용되는 미세Pump 내에서의 유체흐름을 Fluent 프로그램을 사용하여 알아보고자 하였다. 즉, 미세Pump 내로 유체가 흐를 경우, 유체의 압력변화나 온도변화 및 Model에 따른 유동의 흐름을 관찰하여 미세Pump 내에서의 최적의 외부조건과 최적의 Pump Model을 알아보고자 실험하였다. 유동의 흐름을 조사해 본 결과 Chamber의 유무에 따라 압력과 온도의 변화를 관찰할 수 있었다. Chamber가 있는 경우 압력의 변화가 적었고 온도의 변화 또한 적었다. 따라서 Chamber가 있는 Pump가 유체의 흐름에 영향을 적게 줌을 알 수 있었으며 이는 Chamber가 있는 Pump를 설계하는 것이 필요하다고 할 수 있다.

The use of micro bubbles in industrial fields has been increasing in the recent years., particularly micro-bubble sterilization and water purification effects. Various methods have been developed for the generation of micro-bubbles. Depending on the method of generating bubbles, the micro-bubbles can be roughly classified into saturation molding, cavitation and rotation flow types. The objective of this study was to use ventilated tube type as a method of generating micro-bubbles in order to purify large amount of water quality such as lakes and reservoirs. This method shows a difference in efficiency in which micro-bubbles are generated depending on the contact ratio of gas to liquid. The study also investigated the optimal gas liquid contact ratio by applying various orifice methods and investigated the optimum condition of micro-bubble generation by gas Based on this, a technology to develop a micro-bubble generator with a venturi type nozzle shape that has a high water purification effect was developed.

This study concerns the performance of the condensing heat transfer performance of two-phase closed thermosyphons with plain copper tube and tubes having 50, 60, 70, 80, 90 internal micro grooves. Distilled water, methanol, ethanol have been used as the working fluid. The numbers of grooves and operating temperature have been investigated as the experimental parameters. Condensing heat transfer coefficients and heat flux are obtained from experimental data for each case of specific parameter. The experimental results are assessed and compared with existing correlations. The results show that working fluids, numbers of grooves are very important factors for the operation of thermosyphons. The working fluid with high latent heat such as water has a good heat transfer rate compared to methanol and ethanol. The relatively high rate of heat transfer is achieved when the thermosyphon with internal micro grooves is used compared to that with plain tube. Condensing heat transfer coefficient of grooved thermosyphon is 1.5∼2 times higher in methanol and 1.3∼l.5 times higher in ethanol compared to plain tube. The best condensation heat transfer performance is obtained for 60 grooves, and the maximum value of this case is 2.5 times higher than that of the plain tube.

Recently, as the semiconductor production technology develops, there has been growing interest in the cooling system using micro fluid pump. Among the various types of micro fluid pump, the valve-less diffuser/nozzle has been extensively studied in recent years. However, the flat-walled diffuser/nozzle flow has not been clearly looked into due to its non-linear characteristics. In this paper, the flow characteristics of the flat-walled diffuser/nozzle have been analyzed using similitude model and simulations. Similitude models are designed so that the flow pattern is same as that of 1/10 scale flow by using high viscous fluid as working fluid. The results are compared to the simulations. It is shown that the flow characteristics of 2D simulation are different from 3D simulations at high Re region, and the measured pump efficiency is highly dependent on the pressure difference as well as the channel geometry. From these results, the desirable conditions for the efficient pump is discussed.

Microholes with high aspect ratio are required in microstructures. Among various methods for producing the microhole, micro electrical discharge machining (MEDM) is very effective and useful process. But, it is difficult to machine the high aspect ratio holes below $100\;{\mu}m$ in diameter because machining condition becomes unstable due to bad removal of debris at deep hole. In this paper, ultrasonic vibration is applied to MEDM work fluid to make a high aspect ratio micro hole. It is shown that the vibration is effective in circulating the debris and increasing the machining rate. As a result, produced was a micro hole with $92\;{\mu}m$ entrance diameter, $81\;{\mu}m$ exit diameter and aspect ratio 23.

It is so difficult to small amounts of two or more fluid species into single in microchannel because flows are usually laminar. In this regard multilamination micro mixer including recirculation zone is presented. Alternating feed micro channels make multilamination and converging-diverging channels form recirculation zone. Multilamination with geometric focusing decreases diffusion path ana recirculation zones make vortex. In this paper flow patterns and mixing properties of multilamination micro mixer including recirculation zone were investigated by Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The CFD results provided qualitative information on mixing.

The micro drill bit automatic regrinding in-line system is a system that refurbishes drill bits used in a PCB manufacturing process. This system is able to refurbish drill bits with a minimum size of ø0.15-0.075mm that have previously been discarded. Beyond the conventional manual cleaning process using ultrasound, this system adopts a water jet cleaning system, making it capable of cleaning drill bits with a minimum size of ø0.15-0.075mm. This paper analyses various contact pressures applied to the surface of drill bits depending on the shooting pressure of the cleaning device and fluid velocity in order to optimize the nozzle location and to detect structural instability caused by the contact pressures.

The polyimide nozzle and silicon restrictor inside a thermal micro actuator have been fabricated using state of the art laser micromachining methods. Numerical models of fluid dynamics inside the actuator chamber and nozzle are presented. The models include fluid flow from reservoir, bubble formation and growth, ejection through the nozzle, and dynamics of refill through restrictor. Since high tapered nozzle and restrictor are very important parameters for overall actuator performance design, a special setup for the beam delivery system has been developed. The effects of variations of nozzle thickness, diameter, taper angles, and restrictor shapes are simulated and some results are compared with the experimental results. It is fecund that the fluid ejection through the thinner and high tapered nozzle is more steady, fast, and robust and the tapered restrictor shows more satisfying refill than the zero taper one.

Micron-size mechanical devices are becoming more prevalent, both in commercial applications and in scientific inquiry. Within the last decade, a dramatic increase in research activities has taken place, mostly due to the rapidly expanding growth of applications in areas of MEMS(Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems), bioengineering, chemical systems, and advanced energy systems. In this study, we have described the effects of vortex viscosity variation on the flowfields in a micro-slot between rotating surfaces of revolution using a micropolar fluid theory. In order to solve this problem, we have used boundary layer equations and applied non-zero values of the microrotation vector on the wall. The results are compared with the corresponding flow problems for Newtonian fluid. Results show that the coefficient $\delta$ controls the main part of velocity ${\upsilon}_x$ and the coefficient M controls the main part of microrotation component ${\Omega}_{\theta}$.
