Modeling and Optimization of Peristaltic Piezoelectric Pumps Used for Automated Infusion

详细

Two-dimensional models of multilayer piezoelectric peristaltic pumps were constructed. Geometric and physical parameters of the two-layer model were optimized. Conditions for excitation of a traveling deformation wave were investigated. The results of analytical modeling of piezoelectric pumps were compared to the results obtained by the finite element method. The results of this work can be used to increase the performance and power efficiency of infusion pumps.
