A SEARCH OF AN INDUCER GEOMETRY THAT IS BENEFICIAL FOR LIFTING PARAMETERS OF A LIFTED OBJECT OF A SELECTED SHAPE

The literature describes acoustic levitation phenomena with the utilization of air squeeze film between the vibrating inducer and the lifted object. The objective of the study is to determine the shape of the inducer with vibration characteristics that would allow the levitation of an object of the assumed geometry. In this paper, the influence of the dimension ratio of the inducer on the frequency of the first mode of vibration was presented. CFD calculations for a selected dimension series were performed with the goal of the determination of lifting conditions. The data obtained from the analysis will be used to manufacture an inducer that will serve as an experimental verification for the fluid dynamics calculation.
