    This document describes the steps taken to optimize the shape of a Tesla microvalve through computational fluid dynamics simulations. The process involved defining the physics of fluid flow, importing an initial valve geometry, setting up an objective function to minimize pressure drop ratio, performing shape optimization using Bernstein polynomials and deformed geometry interfaces, and verifying the optimized design through additional simulations. The optimized design resulted in a deformed mesh that reduced pressure drop ratio.
