Abstract??Flow patterns of ink layers on the nozzle plate of a piezo-driven printhead are investigated. Two different flow types are identified. First, a jet of droplets induces a radial airflow in the direction of the jet, which in turn causes a liquid flow towards the nozzle. Second, the movement of the meniscus in the nozzle causes an equally strong flow, but completely different flow patterns. The results are presented in a phase diagram with pulse amplitude and firing frequency as parameters. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
