The stators and rotors of full metal screw pump take way of clearance fit, so the clearance value will directly affect the pump lifting performance and efficiency. Firstly using the finite volume method to establish a full-metal single screw pump 3D model, secondly using FLUENT software to calculate outlet pressure changes with different series of clearance value between the stator and the rotor of the pump in condition of the same inlet pressure .lastly Drawing outlet pressure change curves to evaluate the concrete effect of clearance volume on the performance of the pump. The results indicate that the pump outlet pressure increased first and then decreased with increasing clearance value and that pump has good lifting oil capacity with clearance value which is less than 0.5mm.

Abstract: The oil viscosity affects the pump filling coefficient, so it is the important parameter affecting lifting performance of metal screw pump. Firstly using the finite volume method to establish a full-metal single screw pump 3D model, secondly using FLUENT software to calculate outlet pressure changes with different series of oil viscosity in condition of the same inlet pressure.Lastly Drawing outlet pressure change curves to evaluate the concrete effect of oil viscosity on the performance of the pump . The results indicate that the oil viscosity affects liquid filling coefficient of pump. As the viscosity increases, the outlet pressure of the pump increases, the leakage of the pump output decreases, thereby lifting capacity and volumetric efficiency of the pump improve.

Rotational speed is one of the important parameters that impact lifting capacity of full-metal single screw pump .Firstly using the finite volume method to establish a full-metal single screw pump 3D model, secondly using FLUENT software to calculate outlet pressure changes with different series of rotational speed value of the pump in condition of the same inlet pressure .Lastly drawing outlet pressure change curves to evaluate the concrete effect of rotational speed on the performance of the pump. The results indicate that the lifting capacity of the pump and pressure bearing capacity of single stage increase with the rotational speed increasing. The centrifugal performance of the full metal single screw pump is more obvious. So it needs to give full consideration to the effect of rotational speed on characteristics of screw pump in the process of screw pump designing and using, especially the selection of pump series and rotational speed .Increasing the rotational speed of the screw pump can not only reduce the pump series and the structural size, but also can reduce the load torque, improve the reliability of drive system.Now,most of traditional rubber stator is cast one layer rubber that is of double helix surface in the metal enclosure, which can be used together with the metal rotor whose outer surface is plated by hard chrome, while working, the stator can be easily damaged because of the swelling, temperature expansion, and easy to aging of the rubber. As the stator is connected with the tubing, while the stator is damaged and we need to replace a new one, we should disassemble both the poles and string, and it leads to a high cost and the stator can not be used any more, which is apparently a great waste of resource. Besides, that the rubber in the inner surface is hard to clear is also one reason leading to the useless of the stator[1]. Full-metal single screw pump can avoid these shortcomings for its stator and rotor are made of metal materials and they take way of clearance fit. This can ensure the screw pump develops the higher working efficiency in normal operation. However the full-metal single screw pump developed quite late, its theoretical study and basic theory is less and not mature[2]. Rotational speed is the main parameter in the designing and using of full metal screw pump ,so in order to help improve the screw pump performance and for further study of the basic theory of metal screw pump, this paper will focus on the study of effect of rotational speed on the pump performance .

3D model and grid was conducted in Gambit,while single-phase flow field in the pump was simulated in CFD code-Fluent,by means of multiple reference frame (MRF) method, Renormalization group k-ε two-equation turbulence model (RNG k-εmodel) and Semi-Implicit Method for Pressure-Linked Equations (SIMPLEC) algorithm. Aim at problems generated by pump body such as body length limitation on pressure increasing, three new structure of labyrinth screw pumps,rotor separated LSP,stator separated LSP and rotor stator all separated LSP, were put forward in this paper.The analytical results got by contrasted pump hydraulic performance of different structure models indicated that pressure increasing magnitude and pressure increasing rate of the three separated pumps is larger compared to the unseparated pumps,and the conclusion was achieved that pump performance can be optimized through separating rotor or stator into sections by making ring slots on screw body.

The paper is mainly focused on analysis characteristics of lobe pump with three different tooth profiles: Circular, Epi-cycloidal and Circular–Involute–Circular (CIC) rotor profiles. Based on the geometric analysis and mathematical model, the CIC rotor profile combined Circular–Involute–Circular is generated. In this paper, the CFD techniques are used to estimate the effects of tooth profile and lobe number to the pump performance. The simulation results obtained from FLUENT software illustrated that the rotor profile effects remarkably to the pump performance. The outlet pressure of CIC rotor profile is higher than that of the circular and epi-cycloidal rotor profiles. The numerical outcomes also showed that higher rotor’s speed is resulted in higher outlet pressure. Besides, the lobe number of rotor has effect slightly to the pump performance.

Abstract:This paper proposes a method for decomposing heart rate fluctuations into background, respiratory and blood pressure oriented fluctuations. A signal cancellation scheme using the adaptive RLS algorithm has been introduced for canceling respiration and blood pressure oriented changes in the heart rate fluctuations. The computer simulation confirmed the validity of the proposed method. Then, heart rate fluctuations, instantaneous lung volume and blood pressure changes are simultaneously recorded from eight normal subjects aged 20-24 years. It was shown that after signal decomposition, the power spectrum of the heart rate showed a consistent monotonic 1/fa type pattern. The proposed method enables a clear interpretation of heart rate spectrum removing uncertain large individual variations due to the respiration and blood pressure change.

The Toynbee maneuver, swallowing when the nose is obstructed, leads in most cases to pressure changes in one or both middle ears, resulting in a sensation of fullness. Since first described, many varying and contradictory comments have been reported in the literature concerning the type and amount of pressure changes both in the nasopharynx and in the middle ear. In our study, the pressure changes were determined by catheters placed into the nasopharynx and repeated tympanometric measurements. New information concerning the rapid pressure variations in the nasopharynx and middle ear during deglutition with an obstructed nose was obtained. Typical individual nasopharyngeal pressure change patterns were recorded, ranging from a maximal positive pressure of + 450 to a negative pressure as low as −320 mm H2O.


In this work, bifurcation characteristics of unsteady, viscous, Newtonian laminar flow in two-dimensional sudden expansion and sudden contraction-expansion channels have been studied for different values of expansion ratio. The governing equations have been solved using finite volume method and FLUENT software has been employed to visualize the simulation results. Three different mesh studies have been performed to calculate critical Reynolds number (Recr) for different types of bifurcation phenomena. It is found that Recr decreases with the increase in expansion ratio (ER).

BackgroundIbrutinib is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor most commonly associated with atrial fibrillation. However, additional cardiotoxicities have been identified, including accelerated hypertension. The incidence and risk factors of new or worsening hypertension following ibrutinib treatment are not as well known.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective study of 144 patients diagnosed with B cell malignancies treated with ibrutinib (n=93) versus conventional chemoimmunotherapy (n=51) and evaluated their effects on blood pressure at 1, 2, 3 and 6 months after treatment initiation. Descriptive statistics were used to compare baseline characteristics for each treatment group. Fisher’s exact test was used to identify covariates significantly associated with the development of hypertension. Repeated measures analyses were conducted to analyse longitudinal blood pressure changes.ResultsBoth treatments had similar prevalence of baseline hypertension at 63.4% and 66.7%, respectively. There were no differences between treatments by age, sex and baseline cardiac comorbidities. Both systolic and diastolic blood pressure significantly increased over time with ibrutinib compared with baseline, whereas conventional chemoimmunotherapy was not associated with significant changes in blood pressure. Baseline hypertensive status did not affect the degree of blood pressure change over time. A significant increase in systolic blood pressure (defined as more than 10 mm Hg) was noted for ibrutinib (36.6%) compared with conventional chemoimmunotherapy (7.9%) at 1 month after treatment initiation. Despite being hypertensive at follow-up, 61.2% of patients who were treated with ibrutinib did not receive adequate blood pressure management (increase or addition of blood pressure medications). Within the ibrutinib group, of patients who developed more than 20 mm Hg increase in systolic blood pressure, only 52.9% had hypertension management changes.ConclusionsIbrutinib is associated with the development of hypertension and worsening of blood pressure. Cardiologists and oncologists must be aware of this cardiotoxicity to allow timely management of blood pressure elevations.
