- Abstract:
- In the theoretical assessment of accuracy of rotary piston meters, the leakage flow in the rotor-casing gap is of essential importance. The present work aimed at detailed investigation of this flow field employing realistic numerical flow simulation. The resulting flow displayed significant differences to the simple assumption.
