Experimental Investigation of Enhanced Grooves for Herringbone Grooved Journal Bearings

Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Patrick Hubert Wagner, Philipp Kaspar Bättig

This paper presents the results of a theoretical and experimental investigation of the potential of enhanced groove geometries to increase the bearing clearance of a Herringbone Grooved Journal Bearing (HGJB) supported rotor. The theoretical study investig ...

Theoretical and Experimental Investigation of a 34 Watt Radial-Inflow Steam Turbine with Partial-Admission

Jan Van Herle, Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Patrick Hubert Wagner

A micro steam turbine with a tip diameter of 15mm was designed and experimentally characterized. At the nominal mass flow rate and total-to-total pressure ratio of 2.3 kgh-1 and 2, respectively, the turbine yields a power of 34W and a total-to-static isent ...

Theoretical and Experimental Investigation of a Small-scale, High-speed, and Oil-free Radial Anode Off-gas Recirculation Fan for Solid Oxide Fuel Cell Systems

Jan Van Herle, Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Patrick Hubert Wagner

The Laboratory for Applied Mechanical Design (LAMD) designed, manufactured, and experimentally tested a novel recirculation fan for a 10 kWe solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC). The fan uses oil-free bearings, more specifically herringbone-grooved journal and spi ...

Experimental characterization of a solid oxide fuel cell coupled to a steam-driven micro anode off-gas recirculation fan

Jan Van Herle, Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Stefan Diethelm, Zacharie Wuillemin, Patrick Hubert Wagner, David Constantin

While the global fuel utilization of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) is limited by the stack aging rate, the fuel excess is typically used in a burner, and thus limiting the system electrical efficiency. Further, natural-gas-fueled SOFCs require treated wat ...

Influence of Large Relative Tip Clearances for a Micro Radial Fan and Design Guidelines for Increased Efficiency

Jan Van Herle, Jürg Alexander Schiffmann, Patrick Hubert Wagner

The blade tip clearance loss was studied experimentally and numerically for a micro radial fan with a tip diameter of 19:2mm. Its relative blade tip clearance, i.e., the clearance dividedby the blade height of 1:82mm, was adjusted with different shims. The ...
