Initial development of the orbital vane compressor.

Author(s) : EDWARDS T. C.

Summary

The paper reports on the design, development and initial test results of a new type of fluid displacement device known as the orbital vane mechanism. This machine contains few and simple parts, all of which consist only of circular and flat shapes. The machine is free of internal rubbing contact and yet provides high volumetric efficiency at low rotor speeds and high discharge pressures.
