Analytical Model for the Flow in Progressing Cavity Pump with the Metallic Stator and Rotor in Clearance Fit

As the metallic stator progressing cavity pump (PCP) operates with the stator and rotor in clearance fit, the slippage between cavities has a significant influence on the pump performance. In this paper, an analytical model is developed for the flow in the metallic stator PCP. Based on the analyses...
