Finite Elements Strenght Analysis of a Compressor Consisting of Four Helical Rotors

摘要

The present article reports the results of tests of a compressor consisting of four helical rotors. Finite element strength analysis of rotors with varied screw thread pitch was performed. The analysis allowed us to determine the stress-strain state of the rotor material and deformation of rotors as an effect of loads generated during operation of the compressor. The analysis also made it possible to calculate the frequencies of the free vibrations of the rotors.
