Abstract
Flow in the blood sac of the Korean artificial heart is numerically simulated by finite element method. Fluid-structure interaction algorithm is employed to compute the 3D blood flow interacting with the sac material. The motion of the actuator is simplified by a time-varying pressure boundary condition imposed on the outer surface of the sac. Numerical solutions show that there are a strong flow into the outlet and a stagnation flow near the inlet during systole. Shear stress distribution is also delineated to assess the possibility of thrombus formation.
