Description
Summary:In this paper a study and design of a linear peristaltic pump are presented. A set of electromagnetic (solenoid) actuators is used as the active tools to drag the liquid by crushing an elastic tube. The pump consists of six serially-connected electromagnetic actuators controlled via an electronic board. This may be considered as a simulated peristalsis action of intestines. The dynamic performances of the pump are investigated analytically and experimentally.
