Clearance Analysis and Leakage Flow CFD Model of a Two-Lobe Multi-Recompression Heater

This paper reports the results of a study on multi-recompression heating. This process employs a Roots-type mechanism to heat gases to very high temperatures by compressive gas heating. A CFD model predicting the leakage flows in the machine was developed, and an excellent comparison with experiment...
