The Shear-slip Mesh Update Method (SSMUM) is being used in flow simulations involving large but regular displacements of one or more boundaries of the computational domain. We follow up the earlier discussion of the method with notes on practical implementation aspects. In order to establish a benchmark problem for this class of flow problems, we define and report results from a two-dimensional viscous flow around a rotating stirrer in a square chamber. The application potential of the method is demonstrated in the context of biomedical design problem, as we perform an analysis of blood flow in a centrifugal left ventricular assist device, or blood pump, which involves a rotating impeller in a non-axisymmetric housing. 相似文献

A variety of methods by which mechanical circulatory support (MCS) can be provided have been described. However, the haemodynamic benefits of the different methods have not been adequately quantified. The aim of this paper is to compare the haemodynamic effects of six forms of MCS by numerical simulation. Three types of ventricular assist device (VAD) are studied: positive displacement; impeller and a novel reciprocating-valve design. Similarly, three pumping modes are modelled: constant flow; counterpulsation and copulsation. The cardiovascular system is modelled using an approach developed previously, using the concentrated parameter method by considering flow resistance, vessel elasticity and inertial effects of blood in individual conduit segments. The dynamic modelling of displacement and impeller pumps is represented by VAD inlet/outlet flow-rate changes. The dynamics of the reciprocating-valve pump is modelled with a specified displacement profile. Results show that in each simulation, the physiological variables of mean arterial pressure and systemic flow are adequately maintained. Modulation of the impeller pump flow profile produces a small (5 mmHg) oscillatory component to arterial pressure, whereas the displacement and reciprocating-valve pumps generate substantial arterial pressure and flow pulsatility. The impeller pump requires the least power input, the reciprocating valve pump slightly more, and the displacement pump the most. The in parallel configuration of the impeller and displacement pump designs with respect to the left ventricle provides near complete unloading and can cause the aortic valve to remain closed throughout the entire cardiac cycle with the attendant risk of aortic valve leaflet fusion following prolonged support. The in series configuration of the reciprocating-valve pump avoids this shortcoming but activation must be carefully synchronized to the cardiac cycle to allow adequate coronary perfusion. The reciprocating-valve pump is associated with haemodynamic advantages and a favourable power consumption. 相似文献

A new type of blood pump was tested in calves for 6 hours. The pump consists of a rigid housing with a trochoidal internal surface, an inlet and outlet, and two lateral walls. A two-corner piston rotating on an eccentric shaft, describes a trochoidal path, thus creating a gap seal, the gap measuring a constant 10-35 microns. The pump is driven by a watercooled DC motor. For right ventricular assist, a cannula is inserted into the right ventricle through the right atrium, and into the left ventricle for left ventricular assists. From a total of 10 experiments, two left ventricular assists, two right ventricular assists, and three biventricular assists were evaluated. The pump produced a pulsatile flow of 31 at 70 rpm. Energy requirements were 2.19 watts for left, 2.06 for right, and 7.26 for biventricular assists. Plasma hemoglobin remained as low as 10 mg/dl during monoventricular, and increased during biventricular assists to 20 mg/dl after 3 hours, and returned to 16 mg/dl after 6 hours. From these preliminary results it is concluded that this new rotary blood pump may be suitable as a circulatory assist device. 相似文献

In recipients of rotary blood pumps for cardiac assist, the pulsatility of arterial flow is considerably diminished. This influences the shear stress patterns and streamlines in the arterial bed, with potential influence on washout and plaque growth. These effects may be aggravated in the recirculation area of stenoses, and therefore, exclude patients with atherosclerosis from the therapy with these devices. A numerical study was performed for the human carotid artery bifurcation with the assumption of a massive stenosis (75% reduction of cross-section area) in the carotid bulb. Four different flow time patterns (no support to full pump support) were applied. Flow patterns and particle residence time within the recirculation region were calculated, once within the relevant volume behind the stenosis and and once within a small region directly at the posterior heel of the stenosis. The flow patterns showed a considerable radial vorticity behind the stenosis. Mean particle residence time in the whole recirculation region was 15% less for high pump support (nearly continuous flow) compared to the natural flow pattern (0.19s compared to 0.22s), and nearly identical for the small heel region (0.28 to 0.27s). The flow simulation demonstrates, that even in the case of a pre-existing stenosis, the local effects of continuous flow on particle residence times are rather minimal (as was shown previously for intact arterial geometries). Therefore, from the point of macroscopic flow field analysis, continuous flow should not enhance the thromboembolic risk in ventricular assist device recipients. 相似文献

Measurements of the time-varying flow in a centrifugal blood pump operating as a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) are presented. This includes changes in both the pump flow rate as a function of the left ventricle contraction and the interaction of the rotating impeller and fixed exit volute. When operating with a pulsing ventricle, the flow rate through the LVAD varies from 0-11 L/min during each cycle of the heartbeat. Phase-averaged measurements of mean velocity and some turbulence statistics within several regions of the pump, including the inlet, blade passage, exit volute, and diffuser, are reported at 20 phases of the cardiac cycle. The transient flow fields are compared to the constant flow rate condition that was reported previously in order to investigate the transient effects within the pump. It is shown that the quasi-steady assumption is a fair treatment of the time varying flow field in all regions of this representative pump, which greatly simplifies the comprehension and modeling of this flow field. The measurements are further interpreted to identify the effects that the transient nature of the flow field will have on blood damage. Although regions of recirculation and stagnant flow exist at some phases of the cardiac cycle, there is no location where flow is stagnant during the entire heartbeat. 相似文献

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) study of the 4th generation prototype of a continuous flow Ventricular Assist Device (VAD) 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
The continuous flow ventricular assist device (VAD) is a miniature centrifugal pump, fully suspended by magnetic bearings, which is being developed for implantation in humans. The CF4 model is the first actual prototype of the final design product. The overall performances of blood flow in CF4 have been simulated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software: CFX, which is commercially available from ANSYS Inc. The flow regions modeled in CF4 include the inlet elbow, the five-blade impeller, the clearance gap below the impeller, and the exit volute. According to different needs from patients, a wide range of flow rates and revolutions per minute (RPM) have been studied. The flow rate-pressure curves are given. The streamlines in the flow field are drawn to detect stagnation points and vortices that could lead to thrombosis. The stress is calculated in the fluid field to estimate potential hemolysis. The stress is elevated to the decreased size of the blood flow paths through the smaller pump, but is still within the safe range. The thermal study on the pump, the blood and the surrounding tissue shows the temperature rise due to magnetoelectric heat sources and thermal dissipation is insignificant. CFD simulation proved valuable to demonstrate and to improve the performance of fluid flow in the design of a small size pump. 相似文献

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 stresses were made in a shaft-driven prototype of a magnetically suspended centrifugal blood pump at several constant flow rates (3-9 L/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 (6 L/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 (9 L/min) and low (3 L/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. 相似文献

We describe the placement of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) in a pig with spontaneously occurring atrial septal defect (ASD) (incidental finding) that created a right-left cardiac shunt, with subsequent severe hypoxaemia. Early diagnosis was critical in order to prevent end-organ damage due to hypoxaemia. Adequate monitoring alerted us to the deterioration in oxygenation, haemodynamics and cerebral oxygen metabolism. This forced us to change the level of assistance provided by the pump, and thus dramatically correct this impairment. Necropsy revealed an ostium secundum ASD. In conclusion, if hypoxaemia presents after implementation of an LVAD, the presence of a right-left shunt must be ruled out. The first step must be a judicious reduction in assist device flow to minimize intracardiac shunting. Subsequently, atrial septal closure of the defect should be considered. We report an experimental model of severe hypoxaemia after placement of an LVAD as part of a larger research project. 相似文献

Rotary blood pumps have been researched as implantable ventricular assist devices for years. To further reduce the complex of implanted axial pumps, the authors proposed a new concept of intraaortic axial pump, termed previously as "dynamic aortic valve (DAV)". Instead of being driven by an intraaortic micro-electric motor, it was powered by a magnetic field from outside of body. To ensure the perfusion of coronary artery, the axial flow pump is to be implanted in the position of aortic valve. It could serve as either a blood pump or a mechanical valve depending on the power input. This research tested the feasibility of the new concept in model study. A column, made from permanent magnet, is jointed to an impeller in a concentric way to form a "rotor-impeller". Supported by a hanging shaft cantilevered in the center of a rigid cage, the rotor-impeller can be turned by the magnetic field in the surrounding space. In the present prototype, the rotor is 8 mm in diameter and 15 mm in length, the impeller ha 相似文献

Vascular disease is a common cause of death within the United States. Herein, we present a method to examine the contribution of flow dynamics towards vascular disease pathologies. Unhealthy arteries often present with wall stiffening, scarring, or partial stenosis which may all affect fluid flow rates, and the magnitude of pulsatile flow, or pulsatility index. Replication of various flow conditions is the result of tuning a flow pressure damping chamber downstream of a blood pump. Introduction of air within a closed flow system allows for a compressible medium to absorb pulsatile pressure from the pump, and therefore vary the pulsatility index. The method described herein is simply reproduced, with highly controllable input, and easily measurable results. Some limitations are recreation of the complex physiological pulse waveform, which is only approximated by the system. Endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, and fibroblasts are affected by the blood flow through the artery. The dynamic component of blood flow is determined by the cardiac output and arterial wall compliance. Vascular cell mechano-transduction of flow dynamics may trigger cytokine release and cross-talk between cell types within the artery. Co-culture of vascular cells is a more accurate picture reflecting cell-cell interaction on the blood vessel wall and vascular response to mechanical signaling. Contribution of flow dynamics, including the cell response to the dynamic and mean (or steady) components of flow, is therefore an important metric in determining disease pathology and treatment efficacy. Through introducing an in vitro co-culture model and pressure damping downstream of blood pump which produces simulated cardiac output, various arterial disease pathologies may be investigated. 相似文献

Knowing the critical velocity (ucrit) of a chromatography column is an important part of process development as it allows the optimization of chromatographic flow conditions. The conventional flow step method for determining ucrit is prone to error as it depends heavily on human judgment. In this study, two automated methods for determining ucrit have been developed: the automatic flow step (AFS) method and the automatic pressure step (APS) method. In the AFS method, the column pressure drop is monitored upon application of automated incremental increases in flow velocity, whereas in the APS method the flow velocity is monitored upon application of automated incremental increases in pressure drop. The APS method emerged as the one with the higher levels of accuracy, efficiency and ease of application having the greater potential to assist defining the best operational parameters of a chromatography column. 相似文献

This study presents a simulated analysis of Phased Compression Cardiac Assist Device (PCCAD) and evaluation of its applicability as a non-invasive temporary assist for a failing heart. The new technique is based on the chest pump mechanism for blood flow augmentation during external massage by phased compression of the abdominal and thoracic cavities. A semi-closed hydraulic system to simulate the systemic circulation was constructed; the system includes a left ventricle which functions according to the Starling principle and a pneumatic system which controls the pressures applied to the thoracic and abdominal cavities, in complete synchronization with the beating normal or failing heart. The possibility of manipulating the three pumps in series (venous, heart, and arterial) has been checked, and the principal parameters which effect the efficiency of the PCCAD were evaluated. This in vitro analysis shows the high potential of a non-invasive temporary cardiac assist device. It points to the necessary measures one has to take in order to achieve good synchronization and to interfere externally with the augmentation of cardiac output or with the augmentation of root aortic pressure. 相似文献

In the present prototype, the rotor is 8 mm in diameter and 15 mm in length, the impeller has 3 vanes with an outer diameter of 18 mm. The supporting cage is 22 mm in outer diameter and 20 mm in length. When tested, the DAV prototype is inserted into the tube of a mock circuit. The alternative magnetic field is produced by a rotating magnet placed side by side with the rotor-impeller at a distance of 30 mm. Once the alternative magnetic field is presented in the surrounding space, the DAV starts to turn, leading to a pressure difference and liquid flow in the tube. The flow rate or pressure difference is proportioned to rotary speed. At the maximal output of hydraulic power, the flow rate reached 5 L/min against an afterload of 100 mmHg. The maximal pressure difference generated by DAV at a rotation rate of 12600 r/min was 147 mmHg. The preliminary results demonstrated the feasibility of “DAV”, further research on this concept is justifiable. 相似文献

The objective study was to estimate the rheological properties and physiological compatibility of the blood pump by simulating the internal flow field of the blood pump. In this study we use computational fluid dynamics method to simulate and analyse two models of axial blood pumps with a three-blade diffuser and a six-blade diffuser, named pump I and pump II, respectively, and to compare the flow patterns of these two kinds of blood pumps while both of them satisfy the conditions of the normal human blood differential pressure and blood flow. Results indicate that (i) the high shear force occurs between the diffuser and the rotor in which the crucial place leads to haemolysis and (ii) under the condition of 100 mmHg pressure head and 5 l/min flow rate, the difference between the two kinds of blood pumps, as far as the haemolytic performance is concerned, is notable. The haemolysis index of the two pumps is 0.32% and 0.2%. In conclusion, the performance of the blood pump is influenced by the diffusers' blade number. Pump II performed better than pump I, which can be the basic model for blood pump option. 相似文献

For oxidative stripping potentiometry (OSP) measurement, the achievement of reliable results is highly dependent upon the transport of oxidant to the electrode surface and, as a consequence, careful hydrodynamic control is crucial for reproducibility. Two types of detector system, batch and flow, with three different electrode systems, a standard voltammetric magnetic stirrer cell assembly, an voltammetric cell with optically controlled stirrer and a thin layer flow cell with peristaltic pump were compared. In the sensitivity studies, the static stripping procedure enhanced the sensitivity of the measurement compared to forced convection stripping. The use of a flow cell and peristaltic pump provided all the flexibility needed for OSP measurement. The sensitivity can be improved using the combination of fast deposition and slow stripping flow rates. From the viewpoint of reproducibility of the signals, excellent results were obtained for the use of the flow cell with peristaltic pump. 相似文献

A method for obtaining a continuous estimate of alveolar pressure (PAlv) during periodic flow is described; it was developed to improve the precision of measurements of airway and respiratory tissue impedance using the improved resolution of relatively high-frequency (approximately 5 Hz) singlas. The respiratory system was modulated with a piston pump, and lung volume and the volume change due to compression and expansion of alveolar gas were measured plethysmorgraphically; these signals and an analog divider were used to obtain a continuous solution of Boyle's law during flow. The plethysmorgraph was of the "flow" type; with it volume changes at frequencies up to 10 Hz and with rates of change up to 6 l/s were measured without amplitude or phase distortion. The method permits control of frequency and flow amplitude during PAlv measurement and calibration of PAlv in the absence of an active chest wall. However, it is technically complex. 相似文献
