Theoretical Design of a High Speed, Oil Free Radial Compressor for Domestic Heat Pumps
Daniel Favrat, Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Adam Molyneaux
The devlopment of domestic heat pump systems is mainly based on the use of volumetric oil lubricated compressors. Following the implementation of economizer based rotary compressors, which represented a major improvement step, one major opportunity to impr ...
2005Introduction to Cavitation in Hydraulic Machinery
Design, operation and refurbishment of hydraulic turbines, pumps or pump-turbine are strongly related to cavitation flow phenomena, which may occur in either the rotating runner-impeller or the stationary parts of the machine. The paper presents the cavita ...
Politehnica University of Timișoara2004Aeroelastic effects of mistuning and coupling in turbomachinery bladings
A numerical method has been developed to study the effects of structural mistuning on the aeroelastic behaviour of turbomachinery cascades. The specific objectives of the work presented here were the following: A method was to be developed that can assess ...
EPFL2002Unsteady Rotor - Stator Analysis of Hydraulic Pump - Turbine : CFD and Experimental Approach
The parallel rotor-stator computation capabilities of Fine Turbo and CFX-TASCflow CFD commercial codes have been investigated within the frame of the European ESPRIT project HPNURSA. Unsteady computations have been performed for simple test cases, where fl ...
