Thermodynamic Simulation on the Performance of Twin Screw Expander Applied in Geothermal Power Generation

Thermodynamic Simulation on the Performance of Twin Screw Expander Applied in Geothermal Power Generation

A three-dimensional (3D) geometry model of twin screw expander has been developed in this paper to measure and analyze geometric parameters such as groove volume, suction port area, and leakage area, which can be described as functions of rotation angle of male rotor. Taking the suction loss, leakag...
