Abstract
In this research the fluid – structure interaction in a multi layer axial impedance pump is analyzed numerically. The fluid dynamics solver Fluent is coupled with the structure mechanics solver Abaqus. Based on the results from these simulations the flow rate is optimized as a function of the excitation frequency. The efficiency of the pump at resonance frequency is determined. To investigate the functioning of the pump at resonance frequency both Fourier analysis and wave intensity analysis are used.
