The fluidity is the term to determine the materials ability to fill the mold cavity properly. Fluidity is complex property with many variables. Up to this date, there is no methodology for defining the fluidity in a semisolid material state. Submitted paper deals with the proposal of a new method designed for aluminium alloy fluidity evaluation in semi-solid state trough the design of the layered construction die. Die will be primary used for fluidity tests of semi-solid squeeze casted aluminium alloy and to observe the pressing force flow by mentioned casting technology. The modularity consists of possibility to change each die segment. In the experiment the die design was evaluated by simulation in ProCAST 11.5 and by production of experimental castings. The die was made by laser cutting technology from construction steel S355JR. Experimental material was aluminium alloy AlSi7Mg0.3. The temperature of the semisolid state was chosen to achieve 35% of solid phase. The result of next study should be a selected parameters observation and their effect on the fluidity of aluminium alloy in semi-solid state. This will be very important step to determine the optimal conditions to achieve a castings with certain wall thickness produced by the method of semi-solid squeeze casting.

There is currently no multidimensional flow diagnostic tool developed which is capable of elucidating 3D complex flow structures in pulsatile ventricular assist devices (VAD). According to recent clinical reports, most VAD may have a persistent risk of thromboembolism even in administration of systematic medical therapy. The present study, therefore, aims to demonstrate the applicability of Stereoscopic ParticIe Image Velocimetry (SPIV) for characterizing highly 3D complex flows within a pulsatile blood pump. SPIV measurements were carried out within a Spiral Vortex pulsatile blood pump (SV pump). In order to assess the measurement accuracy, the results were compared with those obtained with Laser Doppler Anemometry (LDA). In experiments, a full-scale Perspex model of the SV pump was employed. A Newtonian blood-analog fluid was used with the approximately same refractive index as the Perspex. A flow rate was set at 8.3 L/min (Re=2500) under steady conditions. SPIV measurements revealed 3D complex flow characteristics of a steady swirling flow generated within a conical housing. The flow, similar to a model of Rankine vortex, exhibited intricate natures in a three-dimensional manner, particularly in a core region at the swirling center and in the immediate downstream of inlet flow. In measurement comparisons, the results of SPIV measurements were in agreement with those from LDA. These results successfully demonstrated the viability as well as the efficacy of SPIV measurement in investigating 3D complex flows within the SV pump.
