Stagnant Flow

Magnetically suspended left ventricular assist devices have only one moving part, the impeller. The impeller has absolutely no contact with any of the fixed parts, thus greatly reducing the regions of stagnant or high shear stress that surround a mechanical or fluid bearing. Measurements of the mean flow patterns as well as viscous and turbulent (Reynolds) stresses were made in a shaft-driven prototype of a magnetically suspended centrifugal blood pump at several constant flow rates (3–9L∕min) using particle image velocimetry (PIV). The chosen range of flow rates is representative of the range over which the pump may operate while implanted. Measurements on a three-dimensional measurement grid within several regions of the pump, including the inlet, blade passage, exit volute, and diffuser are reported. The measurements are used to identify regions of potential blood damage due to high shear stress and∕or stagnation of the blood, both of which have been associated with blood damage within artificial heart valves and diaphragm-type pumps. Levels of turbulence intensity and Reynolds stresses that are comparable to those in artificial heart valves are reported. At the design flow rate (6L∕min), the flow is generally well behaved (no recirculation or stagnant flow) and stress levels are below levels that would be expected to contribute to hemolysis or thrombosis. The flow at both high (9L∕min) and low (3L∕min) flow rates introduces anomalies into the flow, such as recirculation, stagnation, and high stress regions. Levels of viscous and Reynolds shear stresses everywhere within the pump are below reported threshold values for damage to red cells over the entire range of flow rates investigated; however, at both high and low flow rate conditions, the flow field may promote activation of the clotting cascade due to regions of elevated shear stress adjacent to separated or stagnant flow.

Mechanical engineers are helping to make the most complex machine of all-the human bodywork better and last longer, with projects ranging from safer skis to a new artificial heart. Researchers are gaining insights into designing a new breed of machines by using pneumatic artificial muscles to simulate the movements of a human arm. Current research is centered around alpine snow skiing, which produces complex loading at the knee. This load can be represented by three force and three moment components. Safety requires the bindings to release before loading reaches a level where it could injure the knee. The cornerstone of the artificial-heart project is the development of a novel magnetically levitated turbo-blood pump, which is intended to serve as a remedy for people with what would otherwise be terminal heart disease. Named the StreamLiner, its design evolution is being governed by numerical optimization algorithms, thus automating the design process for maximum functionality and biocompatibility.

ABSTRACTDiamond-like carbon (DLC) film was deposited uniformly on an irregular structure such as a polyurethane artificial heart blood pump using a special 3-dimensional type electrode. Process of applying the DLC film coating is accomplished by inserting a large number of small metallic balls (φ0.8 mm chromium balls). It is then possible to adjust the shape of the electrode in such a way that the DLC film coating can be applied to the irregular surface of the artificial heart. In investigating the availability of the electrode, under helium (He) plasma, the plasma states were measured using double probe analysis. Lateral profiles of the electron temperature were higher in the centre and decreased towards the edges of the electrode. On the other hand, the plasma density profiles were lower in the centre part than at the edges. The electrode kept ion sheath on the artificial heart blood pump's surface at self-bias voltage uniformly. The results were that the DLC film was deposited completely on the artificial heart blood pump at the film thickness of approximately 350 - 380 nm. Additionally the film structure was uniform.

The axial maglev heart pump has become a global research focus and emphasis for artificial ventricular assist device, which has no mechanical contact, mechanical friction, small size and light weight, can effectively solve thrombus and hemolysis. Impeller is one of the important parts in the axial maglev heart pump, and its structure largely determines the blood pump performance. The research adopts fluid finite element analysis, and puts forward a method to design the impeller of axial heart pump, which took into account the small volume of axial blood pump. The Blades has been designed by calculating aerofoil bone line, and make simulation analysis for different thicken ways of blade by Fluent software, and make a conclusion that the blade thickened with certain rules has better characteristics in the same conditions. The result provides the guidance for design of axial maglev heart pump, and establishes theoretical basis for application of the implantable artificial heart pump.
