Flow investigation in a centrifugal pump

A computational fluid dynamic simulation was conducted using ANSYS FLUENT v 13.0 to investigate the flow in a centrifugal blood pump. The modelling process was conducted using the design program GAMBIT. 4 different models were designed, each having different clearance gap sizes; 0.2mm, 0.3mm, 0.4mm...
