Develop and test a micropump based on acoustic impedance mismatch
This report presents a study on valveless pumps, which operates based on the principle of mismatch in acoustic impedances. Two experimental models of valveless pumps were fabricated and tested.

| Summary: | This report presents a study on valveless pumps, which operates based on the principle of mismatch in acoustic impedances. Two experimental models of valveless pumps were fabricated and tested. The results were recorded and discussed in this report. One of these valveless pumps measures the pressure head while the other measures the mean flow rate of water. The results obtained from the experiments conducted on the two valveless pumps were compared against results of previously designed valveless pumps in similar researches. |
