    Ways to measure elastomer swell

    Thank you all for the great comments! We are actually doing some lab testing and sending some pumps to the manufacturers for a more detailed analysis. The difficult part is that although the lab tests are done at realistic conditions, still we do them only at specific pressure and temperature...

    Ways to measure elastomer swell

    Yes, the rotor is always removed. A single number would not be useful. A 3D map would be perfect, but I am not sure how sophisticated the tool should be to to get the data for that. It would be good to get >=12 measurements at every location of the stator (i.e. at 12 o'clock, at 1 o'clock, at 2...
