Frictional Loss on Vanes in Through-Vane Compressors.

Experimental Investigations on Rotary Vane Compressors

Vane Behavior in Vane Compressors Under Start-up Operation

Vane oompressors can not maintain contact between a vane tip and a cylinder wall under start-up operation since backpressure acting on the vane is not sufficient. We theoretically analyzed transient behavior of the vane under the start-up operation by taking account of changes of the backpressure and discharge pressure after compression starting. The validity of the theoretical analysis was con...

Evaluation of Composite Vane Materials for Rotary Sliding Vane Compressors

The physical performance characteristics of composite materials used for vanes in rotary, sliding-vane compressors, in general, are several orders of magnitude more difficult to quantify for design purposes than most homogeneous materials. This arises from the numerous variables that influence the response of these materials under the severe environmental conditions existing in such compressors...

Computational Investigation on Deswirl Vanes for Multistage Centrifugal Compressors

The goal of this project is to report on some computational investigations about the return flow passages. The return flow channel provides the connection and carries the flow between two stages of a multistage centrifugal compressor. Of course, deswirl vanes are indispensable between the inlet and outlet section, because usually the inlet flow angle, which comes from the impeller, is 70◦ − 75◦...
