Abstract

In this paper we present position analysis of the atomiser unit of a newly developed concept of a printhead for Aerosol-on-Demand (AoD) jet-printing using fluid dynamical modelling and simulation. In our concept of the AoD printhead, the ink is atomised by ultrasonic excitation and focussed by a sheath gas in a converging nozzle. Critical for the functioning of the AoD printing process is a proper positioning of the atomiser unit inside the printhead. Using computational fluid dynamics (CFD), we present a position analysis of the atomiser unit with respect to axial misalignment and tilting.
