Transient Characteristics of Flat-Walled Diffuser/Nozzle Elements of Valveless Piezoelectric Micropumps
Transient behaviors of flat-walled diffuser/nozzle elements are numerically characterized in the case of diffuser angles of 5°
10° and various Wo numbers. For obtaining the factors affecting flow characteristics of the micropumps under unsteady conditions
a time-dependent sinusoidal pressure with amplitudes of 0.5
1 and 5 kPa is applied on the inlet. The results show that the variation of flow rate lags the variation of pressure
and the greater Wo numbers
or the smaller pressure amplitude
the greater phase difference appears; net flow rate increases with increasing pressure amplitude and diffuser angle; both the pressure loss coefficients of the diffuser and nozzle increase with increasing Wo numbers
and decrease with increasing pressure amplitude and diffuser angle. The rectification efficiency of micropumps increases with increasing pressure amplitude for smaller Wo numbers
whereas increases with decreasing pressure amplitude for greater Wo numbers. The vortex generated by transient flow exerts obvious influence on the output performance of valveless piezoelectric micropumps.
