High-Fidelity and Behavioral Simulation of Air Damping in MEMS

Turowski M., Chen Z., Prezekwas A., CFD Research Corporation, US

The paper presents simulations of air damping in MEMS, including squeeze-film and viscous dissipation, using different level models: 3D numerical solution of Navier-Stokes equations (using CFD-ACE from CFDRC), and circuit/behavioral model (in SPICE and Saber/MAST [...]

Modeling 3-D Fluid Flow for a MEMS Laminar Proportional Amplifier

Athavale M.M., Li H.Y., Przekwas A.J., Piekarski B.H., Zeto R.J., Tenney S.M., CFD Research Corporation, US

Fluid flow in a microfluidic laminar proportional amplifier (LPA) was simulated using an advanced 3-D flow solver, CFD-ACE+. Pressure gains for single-stage and two-stage blocked output LPAs were calculated under a variety of flow conditions [...]
