Abstract

An internal lobe pump is suitable for oil hydraulics of machine tools, automotive engines, compressors, constructions and other various applications. In particular, the pump is an essential machine element of an automotive engine to feed lubricant oil. The subject of this paper is the theoretical analysis of internal lobe pump whose the main components are the rotors: usually the outer one is characterized by lobe with elliptical and involute shapes, while the inner rotor profile is determined as conjugate to the other. And the integrated design system which is composed of three main modules has been developed through AutoLISP under AutoCAD circumstance plus CFD-ACE+. It generates new lobe profile and calculates automatically the flow rate and flow rate irregularity according to the lobe profile generated. CFD simulation results show trends similar to those carried out in experiments, and a quantitative comparison is presented. Results obtained from the automotive integrated design system enable the designer and manufacturer of oil pump to be more efficient in this field.
