Piezoelectric pumps are applied in many fields, such as chemical analysis system and fluid pumping systems. Piezoelectric pumps with high output pressure can meet the needs of more fields. This article introduces the design and fabrication of a high output pressure piezoelectric pump with straight arm wheeled check valve. In this paper, the influence of straight arm wheeled check valve on the output pressure of piezoelectric pump is deeply discussed from the aspect of energy loss. This study investigated the effect of valve arm number ( N = 2, 3,4, and 5), the valve arm width ( W = 0.8, 1.0, and 1.2 mm), and the valve arm length ( L = 1.92, 2.02, and 2.12 mm) on the output pressure of piezoelectric pump. The output pressure characteristic of straight arm wheeled check valve piezoelectric pump with different valve parameters is obtained by experiment. Experimental results show that when N = 4, W = 1.0 mm, L = 2.02 mm, the output pressure of the straight arm wheeled check valve piezoelectric pump has the best output pressure of 27.41 kPa at 220 V and 85 Hz. This study provides a reference for the further application of piezoelectric pumps in fluid pumping field.

Imitating the structure of the venous valve and its characteristics of passive opening and closing with changes in heart pressure, a piezoelectric pump with flexible valves (PPFV) was designed. Firstly, the structure and the working principle of the PPFV were introduced. Then, the flexible valve, the main functional component of the pump, was analyzed theoretically. Finally, an experimental prototype was manufactured and its performance was tested. The research proves that the PPFV can achieve a smooth transition between valved and valveless by only changing the driving signal of the piezoelectric (PZT) vibrator. The results demonstrate that when the driving voltage is 100 V and the frequency is 25 Hz, the experimental flow rate of the PPFV is about 119.61 mL/min, and the output pressure is about 6.16 kPa. This kind of pump can realize the reciprocal conversion of a large flow rate, high output pressure, and a small flow rate, low output pressure under the electronic control signal. Therefore, it can be utilized for fluid transport and pressure transmission at both the macro-level and the micro-level, which belongs to the macro–micro combined component.

Introduction:Atomically resolved chemical analysis using techniques such as electron energy loss spectroscopy and annular dark field imaging relies on the ability to form a well-characterised sub-nm electron beam in a FEGTEM/STEM [1-2]. to understand EELS+EDX-signal formation upon propagation of a sub-nm beam through materials we first have to assess precisely the beam intensity distribution in vacuum and find conditions for the best obtainable resolution.Experimental Details:Modern TEM/STEM instruments combine features of both imaging and scanning technology. The beam forming capability approaches closely that for dedicated STEMs, while CCD recording devices allow us to measure the beam profile by direct imaging at magnifications up to 1.5 M. The recording of a “z-section” series through the 3D intensity distribution of the cross-over can therefore be realised by recording of a “condenser focal series”.

Parametric simulation of multi-chamber piezoelectric pump proposed by authors shows that its flow rate is positively correlated with chamber compression ratio when height of chamber wall is not less than central deflection of circular piezoelectric unimorph actuator (CPUA). Therefore, in this paper, principle and structure of multi-chamber piezoelectric pump with novel CPUAs with three-layer structure are proposed and realized, so as to improve its chamber compression ratio, and then improve its flow rate. Its processing technology compatible with PCB processing technology is studied and its flow rate model is established. Central deflection of CPUA with three-layer structure and the flow rate characteristics are tested. Experimental results show that when the central deflection of CPUA with three-layer structure reaches the maximum value of 106.8 μm, the chamber compression ratio and flow rate of multi-chamber piezoelectric pump reach the maximum value of 50% and 3.11 mL/min, respectively. The maximum flow rate is increased by 622% compared to unimproved pump. By comparing experimental results with numerical and finite element simulation results, the realized multi-chamber piezoelectric pump has large flow rate and the established flow rate model can predict its flow rate.

A Monte Carlo simulation program was developed to calculate the variations of the channeled to random electronic stopping powers of He + in an energy 4 MeV in silicon single crystal along the major 〈100〉, 〈110〉 and 〈111〉 axes. This paper discusses both simulation and experimental results that shed light on the contribution of these factors. Results obtained by our simulation are in good agreement with the experimental results.
