N2 - The flow field inside the berlin ventricle assist device (VAD) was studied. A 3D numerical model was constructed to simulate the VAD pump and a time-depended computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis with moving walls was performed to predict the flow behavior in the VAD during the cardiac cycle. The CFD results provided a detailed 3D and time dependent description of the flow field, allowing the identification of stagnation or high shear stress regions.
