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...- AlexVY

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...- AlexVY
