چکیده مقاله |
This paper presents an integrated multiphysics simulation approach of piezoelectric micropumps. Micropumps and micro blowers are essential devices in various cutting-edge industries like laboratory equipment, medical devices, and fuel cells. A piezoelectric micropump involves complex physics including microfluidics, flow-structure interaction, electricity, and piezoelectric material. Hence, a comprehensive analysis of the interactions between different physical phenomena, would be essential for the effective design and optimization of these micropumps. Prior studies on piezoelectric micropump were mainly focused on isolated physical aspects of these pumps, such as piezoelectric mechanics, fluid dynamics, electrical properties, and also fluid-structure Interactions. The present paper fills this gap by integrating these aspects into a holistic simulation and design approach, introducing a new methodology for micropump analysis. Advanced simulation and design tools like COMSOL and SolidWorks were employed in accordance. A brief review of piezoelectric materials, and an exploration of different types of micropumps and their operating principles is discussed. Also, a comparison of various piezoelectric materials, including their properties and applications is investigated. Further, the paper discusses the simulation process of the micropumps, using COMSOL software, and presents an in-depth analysis of the simulation results. This structured approach provides a comprehensive understanding of piezoelectric micropumps, from theoretical underpinnings to practical design considerations. |
