Abstract :
This paper focused on the prediction of pumping performance in DC pump flow. To reach it, an analytic model based on the steady state, incompressible and fully developed laminar flow theory will be provided to analyze the flow characteristic with different scalar dimensions. An analytic circuit model is deduced of an analytical field model and compared to results obtained through 2D FEM simulations.
