Rotary vane vacuum pumps are utilized regularly in many diverse applications including sanitation, septic, agricultural and industrial and have considerable energy requirements. This proposal will see the turbomachinery specialists at the University of Waterloo ("Waterloo") partner with Elmira Machine Industries Ltd. ("Elmira"), Canadian manufacturers of a wide range of rotary vane vacuum pumps with international sales. The first phase of the project will involve the development of a complete test rig housed at Waterloo to above international standards including the ability to obtain high temporal resolution measurements of factors impacting performance such as cyclical air flow and pressure and thermal measurement. In the second phase, innovative strategies will be developed to improve performance including evaluating component temperatures and system air flows. Innovative measurement expertise existing within the turbomachinery group at Waterloo will be utilized in this project in conjunction with the technical know-how and skill set of the Elmira team to produce the next generation of Elmira rotary vacuum pumps.

旋片式真空泵在许多不同的应用中经常使用，包括卫生、化肥、农业和工业，并有相当大的能源需求。滑铁卢大学(“滑铁卢”)的透平机械专家将与Elmira机械工业有限公司(“Elmira”)合作，后者是加拿大各种旋叶式真空泵的制造商，在国际上有销售。该项目的第一阶段将包括开发一个安装在滑铁卢的完整试验台，达到高于国际标准的水平，包括获得影响性能的因素的高时间分辨率测量的能力，如循环气流和压力以及热测量。在第二阶段，将制定改进性能的创新战略，包括评估部件温度和系统空气流量。滑铁卢透平机械组现有的创新测量专业知识将与Elmira团队的技术诀窍和技能组合一起用于该项目，以生产下一代Elmira旋转真空泵。
