The splitter blade can effectively optimize pump performance, but there is still insufficient research in blood pumps that cover both hydraulic and hemolysis performance. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of key factors related to splitter blade on the performance and flow field of axial flow blood pump. In this study, the number of splitter blades, the axial length, and the circumferential offset were chosen as three objects of study. An analysis of the flow field and performance of the pump by orthogonal array design using computational fluid mechanics was carried out. A set of hydraulic and particle image velocimetry experiments of the model pumps were performed. The result showed that the pump had greater hydraulic performance without sacrificing its hemolytic performance when it had two splitter blades, the axial length ratio was 0.6, and the circumferential offset was 15°. Based on these reference data, the splitter blade may contribute to greater hydraulic performance of the pump and cause no side effect on the velocity distribution of the flow field. This finding provides an effective method for the research, development, and application of structural improvement of the axial flow blood pump.

The principle of a large gap magnetic drive system was used to achieve control of an axial-flow blood pump. A dynamic model of the start-up process of the axial-flow blood pump was established. It was analyzed and simulated. An acceleration control method for the blood pump was proposed based on the start-up process dynamic model. A corresponding parameter measurement test system was set up, and experimental data were compared with the results of the theoretical simulation. Results indicated that the experimental values obtained for the blood pump outlet pressure and flow rate changed similarly with the values obtained using theoretical simulation. These changes occurred simultaneously with the change in speed of the blood pump over time, and the driving control target value was reached within 4 seconds.
