Abstract
A valve less piezoelectric pump with triangular obstacles is designed and manufactured, which uses piezoelectric vibrator as power source. The working principle and theoretical flow rate of the valveless piezoelectric pump are analyzed, and its flow rate expression is derived. The flow resistance characteristics of triangular obstacles are simulated by numerical simulation. Based on the mass fraction distribution of liquid water, the forward and reverse flow resistance of triangular obstacles and the influence of triangular obstacles on pumping capacity are analyzed. Finally, two groups of test prototypes of the valveless pump are made by using the engraving machine, and the flow measurement test is carried out. The experimental results show that the valveless piezoelectric pump with triangular obstacles can realize the valveless pumping function, and the pumping flow per unit time increases with the increase of triangular obstacles in the channel, and decreases with the increase of the distance between triangular obstacles and the channel. When the driving voltage is 140V and the driving frequency is 10Hz, the maximum output flow of the piezoelectric pump is 16.26ml/min.
