Abstract
An electrostatic micromachined pump is designed and simulated. The designed micropump has the advantages of flow rate controllability, self-priming, small chip size, and low power consumption. The designed micropump is simulated by the Runge-Kutta method. The flow rate of the designed micropump is considered 10 μl/min which is quite suitable for drug delivery applications, such as chemotherapy. The simulation results for the first membrane deflection with different materials and at pulsed applied voltage is introduced.
