A novel heart pump model was obtained by improving the traditional axial pump design theory with the consideration of working and hydraulic situations for artificial hearts. The pump head range and the velocity triangle were introduced and an iterative approach was utilized for the initial model. Moreover, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations were performed to determine relevant model parameters. The results show that this procedure can be used for designing a series of high-efficiency artificial heart pumps.
