Numerical Simulations of Flat-Walled Diffuser Elements for Valveless Micropumps

Olsson A., Stemme E., Stemme G., Stemme E., Stemme G., Royal Institute of Technology, SE

The flow directing capability of micromachined flat-walled diffuser elements for valve-less micropumps have been investigated. The diffuser element is a small angle flow channel with a rounded inlet and a preferably sharp outlet. The diverging-wall [...]
