Project # P09021
To complete this project, our project team identified the customers needs and specifications , conceptualized development and selection of materials, created a systems design, and built and tested the model.
The construction of the test loop is integral to the development of magnetically levitated axial low
LVAD because the machine is able to characterize the pressures and flows associated with the device
and determine the pumps impact on blood.
This Project builds off of the work of previous Senior Design Projects. Past projects have created a durability tester for LVAD, a centering magnet device and a hemodynamic flow simulation systems. The findings of University of Virginia Article, “Design Initial Testing of a Mock Human Circulatory Loop to Test LVAD Performance” has also been integral to our design choices.
Results concluded that there is adequate flow of pressure within the system to allow adjustments to be made through testing to compensate for the non-steady characteristics.

Data from the automated performance curves, derived using the Biomedicus in place of the LVAD for four different rotational speeds, shows that the data points are overextended, thus the cap on the stepper motor is not wide enough to completely close the tubing.
