Flow rate analysis of a surface tension driven passive micropump.
A microfluidic passive pumping method relying on surface tension properties is investigated and a physical model is developed. When a small inlet drop is placed on the entrance of a microfluidic channel it creates more pressure than a large output drop at the channel exit, causing fluid flow. The behavior of the input drop occurs in two characteristic phases. An analytical solution is proposed ...
متن کاملA microfluidic device based on an evaporation-driven micropump
In this paper we introduce a microfluidic device ultimately to be applied as a wearable sweat sensor. We show proof-of-principle of the microfluidic functions of the device, namely fluid collection and continuous fluid flow pumping. A filter-paper based layer, that eventually will form the interface between the device and the skin, is used to collect the fluid (e.g., sweat) and enter this into ...
متن کاملA Resonantly-Driven Piezoelectric Micropump for Microfactory
For realization of micro fluid power sources applicable to microfactory or micromachines using fluid power with high power density, a resonantly-driven piezoelectric micropump with newly devised check valve unit is developed and a practical application to micro press is attempted. First, a micro sheet valve having a floating valve-body inside valve chest to increase valve-opening and to decreas...
متن کاملSimulation-based Analysis of 3d Flow inside a Micropump with Passive Valves
It is expected that chemical, biological and environmental applications of microdevices will increase with new developments in micromachining techniques. In this work, a micropump design that utilizes passive valves and an actuated diaphragm is presented. The flow rate is controlled by the deflection and the frequency of the diaphragm’s displacement. Passive valves are used for directing the fl...
متن کاملThe dynamic micropump driven with a screen printed PZT actuator
A hybrid actuated silicon-based micropump with dynamic passive valves is described in this paper. The actuator is based on a combination of thick-film and silicon micromachining technology and relies on the flexure of a membrane structure of lead zirconate titanate on silicon. Inlet and outlet valves use the passive dynamic principle, where flow direction is realized with a diffuser and a nozzl...
