Develop and test a micropump based on acoustic impedance miss match

This report presents an experimental model especially designed for two-dimensional valveless impedance pump. This model is tested for different previously reported valveless pumps and shows good agreement with the experiment results. This valveless pump consists two sections of rigid tube whi...
