바이오용 압전디스크방식 마이크로 펌프 설계 및 제작(I) -링형 플랩밸브 모듈의 최적설계-

초록

Though a micro pump is a crucial element in miniaturized bio-fluidic systems or drug delivery systems, it has some intrinsic disadvantages such as backward flow, pulsation of flow, low repeatability and producibility, and high cost. To overcome these limitation, a PZT disc actuated micro pump including a novel ring-shaped multi-flap check valve is introduced. To enhance the performance of the micro pump, the static behaviour of flap valve module and the micro fluidic behavior of fluids are numerically modelled and analyzed. As results of the numerical analysis, the optimal dimension and configuration of the ring-shaped multi flap valve are 1×0.05 mm and 2 (inlet side)×1 (outlet side) type. The obtained maximum flow rates and flow resolution are about 90 ml/min and 30 ㎕/stroke respectively.
