Recently non-mechanical micropumps have become more appealing, due to their advantages in many areas such as electronics and medicine. In this research, a phase change micropump, as a novel type of non-mechanical micropump, has been investigated. Dimensionless parameters have been determined using dimensional analysis and a one dimensional steady model has been developed to describe the pumping mechanism and assess the working characteristics of the micropump. The results show that the theoretical model is in reasonable agreement with the experimental investigations.This analytical approach can be used in the design and fabrication of more efficient micropumps.
