An infusion pump includes an actuator having an output shaft; a pump actuator having a length lactuator moved by the output shaft and in contact with tubing, such that the pump actuator at an output shaft actuated distance x creates flat contact areas with the tubing, and wherein remaining non-contact areas of the tubing are at least substantially circular in shape; and a logic implementer configured to use at least two relationships to solve for a same number of variables to calculate a cross-sectional area of the tubing at an output shaft actuated distance x.
