Design and ANSYS Analysis of Disk-type Piezoelectric Transformer

디스크형 압전변압기의 설계 및 유한요소 해석

Unipoled piezoelectric transformers were designed with different input and output area ratios. The voltage step-up ratio increased proportionally with increasing the input area. The piezoelectric transformers operated in each transformer's resonance vibration mode. In this paper, ANSYS(FEM program) was used for analysing piezoelectric transformers. We compared with analysis and experimental results. The voltage step-up ratio showed maximum value in output area of small size. Output characteristics of piezoelectric transformers with various size were simulated. The result of analysis showed $2\sim7$ times higher voltage step-up ratio than a experiment result.
