Topology optimization for 2D swirl flows with application in the design of a ventricular assist device.

Abstract: Ventricular Assist Devices (VADs) substitute or temporarily assist the heart and blood circulation by means of a small-scale blood pump. Due to the operation with blood, their designs aim to minimize blood damage (hemolysis and thrombosis) and maximize the performance (i.e., more efficient pumping). For that, the topologies of the rotor and the volute play a major role. In this research, the rotor is based on the 2D swirl concept, which considers swirling axisymmetric flow, being represented mainly by the Tesl… Show more
