Heuristic optimization of impeller sidewall gaps-based on the bees algorithm for a centrifugal blood pump by CFD.

Optimization studies on blood pumps that require complex designs are gradually increasing in number. The essential design criteria of centrifugal blood pump are minimum shear stress with maximal efficiency. The geometry design of impeller sidewall gaps (blade tip clearance, axial gap, radial gap) is...
