RESEARCH ON STRESS FATIGUE OF TWIN SCREW COMPRESSOR ROTOR BASED ON THERMAL ANALYSIS by WANG JunLi, LU ZhengWu, LI QingQing, LI TuoLei, LEI Shuai, FENG MingHao

“…Therefore,it is of great significance to analyze the stress fatigue of the screw rotor under the action of temperature load. Based on the finite volume method to numerically simulate the temperature field of the compressor in the working process,the GGI（ General Grid Interface）interpolation technology was used to transfer the temperature load to the rotor structure grid,and a thermo-solid unidirectional coupling simulation method based on loose coupling was established. …”
