Title in Portuguese
Estudo de viabilidade de uma bomba de fluxo piezelétrica utilizando simulação computacional.
Keywords in Portuguese
atuadores piezelétricos
dinâmica de fluidos computacional
métodos de elementos finitos

simulação computacional
Abstract in Portuguese
As bombas de fluxo, além das aplicações clássicas em Engenharia, são instrumentos importantes em áreas como a biologia, farmácia e medicina. Um novo princípio para o bombeamento de fluidos está sendo estudado dentro do Departamento deEngenharia Mecatrônica e de Sistemas Mecânicos da Escola Politécnica da Universidade de São Paulo. O presente projeto trata deste princípio: a utilização de um atuador piezelétrico bilaminar inserido num meio fluido para geração de vazão. O objetivo deste projeto é verificar a viabilidade desta bomba piezelétrica através de simulações computacionais, estudando a sensibilidade do sistema a diversos parâmetros e realizando a otimização do mesmo de forma a maximizar seudesempenho. O software ANSYS é utilizado para a simulação computacional do problema de dinâmica de fluidos e para modelar o atuador piezelétrico bilaminar, e o software Altair Hyperstudy na etapa de otimização. O texto apresenta as metodologias empregadas e discute os resultados obtidos, de forma a analisar os fenômenos físicos em questão e validar este novo princípio proposto.

Abstract in English
Flow pumps, besides their classical applications in Engineering, are important devices in areas such as Biology, Pharmacy and Medicine. A novel principle for fluid pumping has been studied at the Department of Mechatronic Engineering and Mechanical Systems of the Engineering School of the University of Sao Paulo. The current project deals with this principle: the use of a bimorph piezoelectric actuator in a fluid environment for flow generation. The objective of this project is to verify the viability of this pump through computational simulations, by performing a sensitivity analysis for various parameters and an optimization to maximize its performance. The ANSYS software is used for the computational fluid dynamics simulations and for modeling the bimorph piezoelectric actuator, and the Altair Hyperstudy software for the optimization. The text presents the employed methodologies and discusses the obtained data in order to analyze the physical phenomena involved and to validate this novel principle.
