ABSTRACT • Design and development of a high speed and precision magnetostrictive fluid pump • Design a pump operating at up to 10,000 Hz that functions using magnetostrictive properties of terfenol-d. • Large volumes are enabled by the high frequency displacement • Summarize accomplishments!!!!
INTRODUCTION • What is magnetostriction? • Ferromagnetic materials displace in proportion to magnetic field • Causes ‘hum’ around electrical equipment • Regular metals have a strain around 10^-6 • High performance materials (like terfenol-d) have strain around 10^-3 • We can use this displacement to pump fluid
INTRODUCTION • Boundaries: • Resolution of 10mL • Operating temperatures: 23-27°C • Max. dispensing speed: 100mL/ms • Frequencies up to 10KHz • Supply fluid: Gravity fed reservoir • Dispensing volume: 10mL – 100mL
PLANNING • Tasks: • Market Research • Design Magnetostrictive Pump • Design Pumping Mechanism • Design Control system • Manufacturing Process/CAD Drawings
Gantt Chart/Schedule: PLANNING
PLANNING • Circuit Diagram/Critical Path:
PLANNING • Deliverables: • Design • Manufacturing Drawings • References
PLANNING • Time Estimate • A = Constant as a function of company size • PC = Project Complexity • D = Project Difficulty • J = Level in Function Diagram • F = Number of functions at a given level
PLANNING • Time Estimate of 105 hours • Statistical Time Estimate of 108 hours Pump Liquid Pump for a specific Amount of Time Pump at a precise Flow rate
IMPACT STATEMENT • Dispensing accurately metered quantities of fluid is critical for applications in the area of pharmaceutical, biotechnology and aerospace applications. • Small quantities of fluid at high frequencies are most suitable for Bio MEMS devices.
