A Study of the Effect of the Inertia Force of the Vanes on the Performance of the Hydraulic Vane Pump with Hypertrochoid Curve in the Inner Surface of Its Stator

摘要

Performance of a fixed displacement hydraulic balance vane pump, theoretically and practically was studied by application of the hypertrochoid curve in the inner surface of its stator. In addition to improving a sealing action between pressure and suction sides of the pump, one of the important characteristics of the hypertrochoid profile is improving of the inertial reaction of the vanes in each position where these vanes have a radial movement. Then it causes a smooth sliding motion of the vanes, and hence, a higher performance of the pump while attaining a longer life of it because of decreasing vane- tip and inner surface of stator wear and decreasing of vibration, noise and high stresses.
