The content of this master‘s thesis is a study of diaphragm pump with linear drive. Linear motor was used as the linear drive. Thesis is well – founded by theoretic calculation of pump and its design draft. Likewise, the thesis includes optimalization of suction, or pressure, valve for pump, created by using computer fluid dynamics software. Thesis is complemented by basic view of different types of pumps based on the classification by hydrodynamic and hydrostatic pumps. Subsequently, the preview of blood – flow pumps is presented.
