Flow Visualization Studies in the Novacor Left Ventricular Assist System CRADA PC91-002, Final Report
- Federal Energy Technology Center
This paper discusses a series of experiments to visualize and measure flow fields in the Novacor left ventricular assist system (LVAS). The experiments utilize a multiple exposure, optical imaging technique called fluorescent image tracking velocimetry (FITV) to hack the motion of small, neutrally-buoyant particles in a flowing fluid.
