Study on Efficiency Expression and Conversion Method of Wankel Pump by Yanshun LIU, Xiao ZHANG, Zheng ZHOU, Xianghui LI, Zecheng DENG, Qiang FU

“…However, the current efficiency expressions and conversion theory for the Wankel pump are insufficient and do not offer guidance for designing and producing prototype pumps through hydraulic testing of model pumps in laboratories. Therefore, this study proposes a method for expressing and converting the efficiency of the Wankel pump based on the sub-parameter conversion method. …”
