Abstract(in English) In the ultrasonic levitation technology of small chip parts, some parts are difficult to be levitated at frequencies below 40 kHz, but can be levitated at frequencies above 70 kHz. According to the theory of acoustic radiation force, the ratio of holding force to gravity does not decrease as the volume of the object to be levitated decreases, but the acoustic streaming may inhibit levitation. An viscoacoustic analysis was conducted considering the viscous boundary layer, and the fluid pressure of the acoustic flow was calculated by simulating the acoustic streaming via the acoustic flow driving force theory. As a result, the disturbing force due to the acoustic streaming exceeded the holding force as the volume of the floating object decreased. When the dimension of levitated object is less than 20 times the boundary layer thickness, it cannot be lifted regardless of the input sound pressure amplitude.
