Abstract:
The present invention provides an adjustable rotor and/or stator, so that the interference fit and/or clearance can be adjusted. The rotor and/or stator are tapered to provide a difference in fit between the rotor and stator by longitudinal adjustment of their relative position. In one embodiment, the adjustment may occur while the PCP in mounted downhole in a wellbore. In another embodiment, the adjustment may occur automatically depending on sensor input of operating conditions of the PCP.
Abstract:
An eccentric screw pump for delivering solid-laden liquids includes a rotor and a stator within which the rotor is rotatably arranged. The rotor and stator are arranged and designed with respect to one another in such a way that at least one chamber is formed, which serves to transport the liquid. The eccentric screw pump has a drive motor for rotating the rotor, a control device for controlling the drive motor at least in a working state, in which the rotor is rotated, and an idle state, in which the rotor does not rotate, and an engagement unit, which is designed to set an engagement between the rotor and stator to an idle engagement in the idle state and to a working engagement in the working state. The idle engagement is less than the working engagement. A method for operating the eccentric screw pump is also disclosed.

A rotary piston and cylinder device (1) comprising: a rotor (2), comprising a rotor surface (2a), a piston (5) which extends from the rotor surface, a stator (4), a rotatable shutter (3), the rotor surface and the stator together defining an annular chamber, and the piston arranged to rotate, through the annular chamber, wherein when the chamber is viewed in axial cross-section, substantially a single surface of the stator in part defines the chamber (100).
Abstract:
Compression of water vapour as R718 is disclosed with and without addition of additives as an aqueous solution in rotational displacement machines, i.e. refrigeration, air-conditioning and heat pump technology. To largely avoid over or under-compression, it is proposed for the easiest possible adaptation of the currently effective internal volume ratio as so-called iV value in the displacer that the compressor housing starting from the outlet side with rotor profile length LR over a length LiV comprises planar, i.e. flat iV disks (3j) with the index j for 1≤j≤n; n is the number of disks; n≥1 with a width bj per iV disk having planar surfaces PF preferably perpendicular to the neutral axis AN. The iV disks are displaced in a targeted manner individually by movement control devices (5j) per iV disk in each case by a distance si where 0

Abstract:
A liquid ring pump is provided. The liquid ring pump is designed to reduce the overall envelop of the ring pump. The liquid ring pump includes a housing and an impeller. The housing defines an impeller cavity. The impeller cavity has an inlet port and a discharge port. The impeller is positioned within the impeller cavity for rotation about a central rotational axis. The impeller includes a central hub defining a conical outer surface and a plurality of angularly spaced apart main vanes extending radially outward from the conical outer surface relative to the central rotational axis. The inlet and discharge ports may be located on a same side of the impeller housing.
Abstract:
A screw compressor or pump includes: a housing, two intermeshing rotors respectively rotatably mounted in the housing by two shafts; each rotor having a helix tooth spirally formed on the rotor lengthwise, with the helix tooth gradually decreasing an outer diameter of a top land surface of the helix tooth corresponding to a gradually contracted rotor chamber, and having a spiral groove juxtapositioned to the helix tooth and spirally formed in the rotor lengthwise; the spiral groove having a groove bottom surface extrapolatively defining an inner cone tapered towards a suction port side; the rotor chamber having a conical wall surface extrapolatively defining an outer cone tapered towards a discharge port side, thereby forming a gradationally contracted cavity between the spiral groove and the conical wall surface of the rotor chamber as confined between the inner and outer cones for increasing the compression or pumping efficiency.
