微型胶囊在模拟肠道中的受力模型及流固耦合仿真

对胶囊在黏性液体环境下的受力进行了理论分析,研究了不同尺寸头部分别为圆形、椭圆形的磁驱胶囊在肠道环境中流固耦合作用下的动力特性。采用COMSOL分析了肠道动力黏度、肠道尺寸、胶囊外形3因素对胶囊运动受力影响,肠道壁模型基于力学性能相近原则,采用超弹性固体材料。进行了多因素、多水平的数值模拟试验。结果显示:在同水平的动力黏度和肠道内壁尺寸参数下,椭圆形较圆形胶囊的头部压力平均降低了12.8%。

Stress model and fluid solid coupling simulation ofmicrocapsule in simulated intestine

The theoretical of the stress of capsule was analyzed in viscous liquid environment. and studied the dynamic characteris-tics of magnetic drive capsules with different sizes of round and oval heads under fluid-solid coupling in intestinal environment. The effects on the capsule exercise stress were also studied from the gut dynamic viscosity, the capsule size and capsule shape by COMSOL. According to the principle of similar mechanical properties, using superelastic solid material, the intestinal fluid model and the intestinal wall model were designed by multiple factors and levels of numerical simulation experiments. Results: At the same level of dynamic viscosity and intestinal wall dimension parameters, oval head capsule driving resistance decreased about 12.8% compared to that of circular capsule.
