CFD Analysis and Optimization of a Novel Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD)

CFD Analysis and Optimization of a Novel Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD)

The present case study looks at a Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) based on an axial flow pump. CAESES was used as the central hub in the automation workflow. In addition to CAD generation, it was also used as the process integration and design optimization (PIDO) platform. CAESES was coupled to the Ansys Workbench in which the 3D meshing and CFD simulations took place, utilizing the CFX solver.
