This paper proposes innovative numerical methods for calculating the chamber volumes and tangential leakage gaps in a scroll compressor, a critical aspect of enhancing its performance and efficiency.

Fuel cell technology is continuously gaining ground in E-mobility applications. Fuel cells require a constant supply of pressurized air, for which high-speed turbo compressors with air bearings are an ...

The improvement of turbocharger components-such as compressor-by means of virtual methods can be done most efficiently if those component’s geometries are given in a parameterized format. It is shown ...

The aim of this paper is to investigate the design in similarity of a centrifugal compressor for micro gas turbine and the related scaling effects on performance using CFD investigations. This work is ...

Biogas is used for generating electrical energy, for vehicle operation or for feeding into a gas grid. In order to obtain an operational gas, raw biogas is generally compressed and processed in ...

Compressor station design has been attracting a growing amount of attention in recent years, since it plays a very important role on the feasibility of gas pipeline projects. However, the decision on ...
