The Positive Displacement Machine Handbook explains the design and workings of a wide range of positive displacement pumps, compressors and gas expanders. Positive displacement machines are based on the concept of changing the volume available for fluid processing in a manner which produces matching variations in the pressure of that fluid. This is achieved by the use of mechanical linkages specially designed to optimise the pressure-volume relationships in order for the machine to perform efficiently.

Presented at a mathematical and technical level, the most influential research in this field over the past decade or so is examined, along with best practice from industry. The work featured here highlights the importance of using the latest computation techniques, and following proper design procedure to achieve the desired outcome.

  • Explains how these machines work on a fundamental level, helping the reader build a holistic understanding which aids complex problem solving
  • Describes how to mathematically model the performance of pumps, compressors and gas expanders
  • Provides advice on how to design and optimise positive displacement machines to match a given application
