- This flange (21) is located in the lower lower half of the expansion machine (804) when it is mounted on an associated rotary machine (801). Its exact position is determined according to the machine (801), to facilitate the purging of the stagnant working fluid (808) in the stationary machine and the connection to a condenser (805) of the Rankine cycle. Also, its orientation is preferably such that its orifice is oriented in a direction opposite to the rotating component of the flow of working fluid in the form of vapor (808) at the spiral outlet, and this in order to limit the exit of the oil carried by said vapor.
- the outside of the spiral cover (4) has, in parallel with its intake circuit, a bypass valve (59) intended, once actuated, to redirect the flow steam directly to a low pressure zone (817) via a volume (418) located behind the fixed scroll (2), without passing between the spirals (2 and 3).

- FIGS. 16, 17 and 20 respectively represent a view of a variation of steam intake port shape, views detailing the operation of the exhaust ports of the spirals, as well as a sectional view of the central zone of the spirals.
- the radial guidance between the two spirals is said to be accommodating ("compiling" in English).
- the mobile spiral (3002) is indeed still in contact radially with the fixed spiral (2002) via the sealing points (416), visible in a step 601 of FIG. 5.
- Pressurized steam (808) is admitted into the central chamber (411) via the central bore in the fixed scroll (407).
- the pressure of this central chamber (411) pushes the mobile spiral (3), increasing the volume of said central chamber.
- the volume of this chamber (411) increases to a step 606 of Figure 5, where the central chamber (411) is split into two symmetrical chambers (419 and 420). The expansion then continues in these two symmetrical chambers (419 and 420) to the exhaust.
- the spiral profile extends over three and a half turns in order to obtain the optimum volume ratio between the volume just before the exhaust and the volume just after admission for the intended type of operation.
- the Spiral geometry (2 and 3) is adjusted according to the input parameters of the expansion machine (804). These parameters can be the pressure of the working fluid (808), its flow rate, its temperature, the type of fluid used or the speed of rotation of the expansion machine (804) in particular.
- spiral sealing segments (“tip-seal” in English) (17 and 18) are mounted in grooves provided for this purpose (408 and 308).
- These segments (17 and 18) are made of polyetheretherketone (PEEK), in a grade resistant to temperatures of over 250 ° C, with a thickness typically between 1 and 4 millimeters.
- the spirals (2 and 3) each have two studs (403 and 302) in contact with the anti-rotation ring (12).
- the tangential force of the mobile spiral (3) is transmitted to the anti-rotation ring (12) by its studs (302).
- the ring is locked in rotation by the fixed spiral (2) by means of two studs (403), it follows that the induced rotation of the mobile spiral (3) relative to the fixed spiral (2) is impossible .
- the studs (403 and 302) being positioned perpendicular to each other, it follows that the movement of the mobile spiral (3) is possible on the plane of the axial abutment (220) .
- the studs (403 and 302) have at their corners chamfers (311) of low angle, typically between 1 degree and 5 degrees, visible in the detail view B of Figure 4. These chamfers are intended to create an effect hydrodynamic beneficial for the lubrication of the sliding contact between the studs (403 and 302) of spirals and the anti-rotation ring (12).
- the mobile spiral (3) also has two additional studs (306), of lower height than the guide pads of the ring (302). These studs (306) make it possible to limit moving the anti-rotation ring (12) in the axial direction.
- the movable scroll (3) has a cavity (304) and a projection (305) for returning the center of gravity of the workpiece to the axis of its hub (320). This balancing eliminates inertial torque fluctuations of up to 50% of the maximum torque delivered by the machine.
- the fixed and movable spirals (2 and 3) have cavities (303 and 406). These cavities (303 and 406) are positioned in such a way as to increase the exhaust passage section without modifying the previously described volume ratio and have the effect of reducing the work consumed by the machine during the discharge phenomenon.
- FIG. 17 shows the operation of these cavities (406) at the moment of opening of the two last symmetrical chambers (423 and 424), that is to say close to step 601 as represented in FIG. 5: the vapor flow (808) then begins to escape through its "natural" opening (422) formed by the relative movement of the two spirals (2002 and 3002), but also by its openings formed by the spiral crenels (312) and the cavities (406).
- cavities (303 and 406) are symmetrical to form the same exhaust passage section for the two symmetrical chambers (423 and 424). These cavities (303 and 406) are broken down into a plurality of portions to provide "bridges" (425) for sealing segments (17 and 18) to be held in their grooves (308 and 408).
- the fixed and movable spirals (2002 and 3002) have notches (312) machined at the groove of the segment. These notches, visible on the detail C of FIG. 4 and in FIG. 17, are positioned so as to coincide with the cavities (303 and 406) during the discharge, and thus to increase the exhaust flow rate for the same purpose as the cavities (303 and 406).
- the exhaust flow is represented by arrows in FIG. 17.
- the notches (312) are machined in several parts to maintain the sealing rings (17 and 18) correctly in their grooves (308 and 408).
- Figure 18 shows the evolution of the forces generated by the steam (808) throughout a rotation of the expansion machine (804) according to the invention.
- the curves FT1 and FRI respectively designate the tangential and radial vapor force (808) applied to the mobile spiral (3) in the presence of cavities (303 and 406) as well as notches (312).
- the curves FT2 and FR2 respectively denote the tangential and radial vapor force (808) applied to the mobile spiral (3) without the presence of the cavities and crenellations.
- FIG. 18 shows that the presence of cavities (303 and 406) as well as notches (312) makes it possible to reduce by 40% the maximum amplitude of the radial vapor force (808) applied to the mobile spiral (3). In addition, this reduction causes a decrease in the variation of the sealing force between the mobile spiral (3) and the fixed spiral (2) and allows a better control of the flanks tightness while improving the fatigue strength of the materials. .
- FIG. 18 also shows that the presence of cavities (303 and 406) as well as notches (312) make it possible to increase the average tangential vapor force (808) applied to the mobile spiral (3). This increase results in an increase in the torque delivered by the expansion machine (804) involving a gain in efficiency of up to 2% depending on the pressure ratios applied to the input and output of the machine.
- the fixed and movable spirals (2 and 3) both have a nose fillet (410 and 309) at the foot of the central end of the spiral profile (usually called the spiral "nose").
- These leaves (410 and 309) whose radius is typically between 0.2 millimeters and 0.5 millimeters, are intended to reduce the stress concentration present on the nose, this place being generally the one for which the stresses are the most important. strong.
- the profile of the base of the nose has been enlarged to reduce the constraints to an acceptable level.
- the stress level was calculated around 100 MPa, which is acceptable in service life for cast iron spirals.
- steel spirals may have a thinner nose, and therefore have a better performance.
- this type of solution increases the cost of production of the machine.
- the fixed and movable spirals (2 and 3) both have a chamfer (421 and 318) in their central zone, at the top of their nose. These chamfers are intended to avoid any interference with the nose fillet (410 and 309) of the opposite spiral during the movement of the mobile spiral (3).
- the stationary scroll (2) has a centrally located cavity (409) extending axially from an intermediate plane (2003) to the front surface opposite the transverse disc end plate (2001) at the level of his nose.
- the movable scroll (3) also has a centrally located cavity (313) extending axially from an intermediate plane (3003) to the front surface opposite the transverse disc end plate (3001). at the level of his nose. As described in more detail below, these cavities (409 and 313) are used to ensure that the two symmetrical chambers are subjected to the same vapor pressure.
- Figure 14 shows sectional views of the central zone of the fixed scroll assembly (2) and movable spiral (3) on the three different stages (604, 606 and 607) of the expansion cycle of the machine (804).
- the cavity (313) of the mobile spiral (3) opens a communication channel (319) between the two symmetrical chambers (419 and 420).
- the cavity (409) of the fixed spiral (2) also makes it possible to open a communication channel (315) between the two symmetrical chambers (419 and 420).
- These two channels (314 and 315) make it possible to reduce the pressure difference between the two symmetrical chambers (419 and 420).
- the two symmetrical chambers (419 and 420) are ideally subjected to the same vapor pressure, since it is known that a pressure difference in the two symmetrical chambers (419 and 420) causes instability of the machine (804) during its operation. This increases noise and vibration levels during operation, and tends to reduce overall life.
- cavities (409 and 313) are located axially from intermediate planes respectively (2003, 3003) to front surfaces opposite the transverse disc end plates respectively (2001, 3001) at the noses of their spiral. in order not to reduce the size of the nose near the nose pads (410 and 309), in order to guarantee the mechanical strength of the spiral noses.
- the oblong hole (407) of the fixed spiral (2) is also located at a distance from the fillet (410) in order to avoid any stress concentration which is detrimental to the mechanical strength of the fixed spiral (2).
- the central bore (407) of the fixed spiral has an oblong shape.
- This shape, its precise positioning (angle, center) and the fact that this drilling is done partially in the material of the fixed spiral (2) have been determined in such a way as to optimize the input steam flow while maximizing the volume ratio of the trigger.
- the ideal form of this piercing is a form of "bean" (426) of the type shown in FIG. 16, however this type of shape proves difficult to machine industrially.
- a simple round hole is easier to perform, but also has lower performance: lower input rate and / or lower volume ratio.
- the mobile spiral (3) has, around its surface in contact with the abutment, a low angle chamfer (310), typically between 1 degree and 5 degrees, visible in the detail view D of FIG. chamfer (310) is intended to create a beneficial hydrodynamic effect for the lubrication of the sliding contact between the mobile spiral (3) and a washer (9) of the axial abutment.
- the transition between a rear face (317) of the mobile spiral (3) and the chamfer (310) is achieved through a fillet (316).
- the fixed (2) and movable (3) spirals are made of cast iron, in particular a cast iron of spheroidal graphite type resistant to ethanol.
- the parts are made by casting in a mold and by machining spiral profiles and different holes, and can be surface treated by nitriding in a bath of salts followed by an oxidation phase or alternatively phosphate phosphating treatment of manganese.
- the parts are made of steel which is or is not subjected to a treatment of the DLC type on at least its contact surface at the level of the spirals.
- Figures 3 and 6 respectively show a longitudinal sectional view of the machine and a view in perspective of the elements constituting the moving part of the relaxation machine.
- the anti-rotation ring (12) surrounds the mobile spiral (3). It is positioned so that the axial force induced by the pressure in the mobile spiral (3) is transmitted directly to the support of the axial stop (220).
- This ring is called "female - female” because it has grooves arranged perpendicularly to each other. This configuration allows the ring to axially bring together the two forces applied to it, namely the force applied by the studs (302) of the mobile spiral (3) and the reaction force applied by the studs (403) of the fixed spiral (2). The fact that these two forces are axially close has the effect of minimizing the buckling of the ring (12) under load.
- the mobile spiral (3) has the central hub (320) in which is housed a bearing (106).
- This hub contains an insulation cup (11).
- This cup (11) makes it possible to create a static vapor volume forming a thermal insulation at the place where the temperature of the mobile spiral (3) is highest.
- the cup (11) has holes to prevent the accumulation of liquid in the volume of insulation.
- the inertial contribution of the mobile spiral (3) to the sealing force is suppressed by means of the dynamic balancing carried out with the counterweight (14). ).
- This feature makes it possible to make the sealing force independent of the speed of rotation of the expansion machine (804).
- This feature is particularly important when the expansion machine (804) is connected to an associated rotary machine (801) whose rotational speed is variable.
- the tightness between the mobile and fixed (2 and 3) scrolls at low speed is improved, and the risk of damaging the high speed spirals is reduced.
- the link between the shaft (13) and the counterweight (14) is formed by means of the bulge (26), visible in FIG. 15.
- the crown (26) is fixed on the shaft (13) by the intermediate screw (27) and can alternately be hooped in its housing.
- the crown (26) has a slightly convexly adjusted surface (260) at the contact surface with the counterweight (14).
- This convex surface (260) has a radius of curvature of the order of one meter and allows the counterweight (14) to have a straight linear connection with the shaft (13).
- the line of contact between the crown (26) and the counterweight (14) makes it possible to reduce the hyperstatism of the expansion machine (804) and thus to suppress the transmission of the moment generated by the axial forces of steam (808) to the tree (13).
- the dimensions of the crown (26) may also be adapted to modify the effective offset of the eccentric crankpin (314) vis-à-vis the shaft (13), and thus to modify the sealing force between the two spirals ( 2 and 3).
- the crown (26) may advantageously be made by an insert to facilitate its realization, particularly when this piece will require a hardness and / or surface condition more restrictive than those of the shaft (13). It will thus be possible to assemble economically a curved (26) steel treated ground with a shaft (13) cast iron or steel directly from turning or milling.
- Figures 3 and 7 respectively show a longitudinal sectional view of the machine, a perspective view of the elements constituting the housing assembly in partial section.
- Figures 9 and 19 show respectively variants in the contact surface of the washer (9) and a variant of the washer (9) having an annular chamber against pressure.
- This set (200) consists of two main parts: the housing (5) and the PTO adapter (8) (PTO is the abbreviation of the term “Power Take-Off", equivalent to the French “Auxiliary Power Take”) ). These two parts are assembled through a bolted assembly which also allows to mount the housing assembly (200) on the spiral cover (4).
- Sealing and centering of the housing assembly (200) with the spiral cover is provided by a cylindrical flange (201) and the O-ring (74) disposed in an annular groove (229).
- This is a low-pressure zone at low temperatures relative to the rest of the machine, allowing the use of inexpensive elastomeric seals rather than high temperature resistant seals.
- the seal (74) like all other static seals of the machine, is a fluoroelastomer O-ring, for example VITON (trade name) or EPDM (ethylene-propylene-diene monomer).
- the sealing and centering of the housing part (5) with the PTO adapter part (8) is provided by a cylindrical centering (217) and an O-ring (72) disposed in an annular groove (228).
- the PTO adapter part (8) has fastening means (205) allowing the mounting of the expansion machine (804) on the associated rotary machine (801), for example at a power take-off, and in particular the rear power take-off, provided on the associated rotary machine (801).
- this fixing means can be adapted according to the interface available on the casing of the associated rotary machine (801).
- this attachment is made by bolting with ears (205). Sealing is provided by an O-ring (75) disposed in an annular groove (221).
- this fastening means (205) and the compactness of this part allow the machine to be partially inside the casing of the associated rotary machine (801), thereby reducing the visible external bulk of the machine ( 804).
- the housing assembly (200) has one or more shims (23) in the form of a housing flange (417).
- the thickness of this shim is adjusted in order to adjust the axial clearance between the fixed spiral (2) and the moving spiral (3), in order to reach a nominal clearance, for example 50 microns.
- This nominal axial clearance between the spirals (2 and 3) is calculated based in particular on the temperatures and operating pressures applied to the machine (804), but also on the rigidity of the high temperature flat gasket (6).
- the control of this axial clearance is essential especially since the machine (804) is designed to operate at high temperature (up to 250 ° C).
- This housing assembly (200) comprises an axial abutment support (220) containing the axial forces generated by the steam pressure on the mobile spiral (3).
- the friction exerted on this stop during the displacement of the mobile spiral greatly affecting the overall performance of the machine (804), a surface treatment is applied to one of the surfaces of the abutment, the side of the mobile spiral (3). ) or the housing (5), or both, to reduce the friction losses due to this contact.
- this treatment was not performed directly on the parts, but on a steel washer coated with a composite metal-polymer (9) (for example provided by the company Daido Metal, trade name DAIDYNE DDK05 ) or any other similar surface coating made in particular by a layer of PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) or any other Young's modulus material less than or equal to 5 GPa, of minimum thickness 50 ⁇ m deposited on a metal substrate allowing the mechanical attachment of soft material (PTFE or other) and the dissipation of heat.
- the washer (9) attached was attached to the abutment support (220) to reduce friction with the moving spiral (3). Alternatively, it may be fixed on the mobile spiral (3), or may not be fixed at all.
- the washer (9) greatly simplifies the process of making the surface treatment, which is difficult and expensive to perform on large parts.
- the washer (9) was fixed by means of rivets (105), but could be fixed by any other means (screws or pins for example) without this modifies its principle of use.
- the washer may be centered on its inside or outside diameter and stopped in rotation by a lug or a pin.
- a washer (9) having a thickness of flexible material (Young's modulus less than 5 GPa) and thickness of the order of 50 to 250 microns allows accommodation of the surface and facilitates the formation of a "wedge of oil" on the inner edge of the surface (211).
- the layer of flexible material also allows a certain accommodation over its entire flat surface, it may advantageously be used raw, without the need for rework or rectification that would have been necessary to achieve an acceptable level of flatness if the piece had been made of metal or coated with a thin deposit.
- the washer (9) abutment may have on its face subject to friction several depressed areas (222) distributed substantially homogeneously.
- these areas in depression - or pockets - (222) are substantially circular and have a small depth in front of their diameter, typically 30 to 100 ym deep.
- the pockets (222) have a radius preferably less than the eccentricity of the orbital trajectory of the mobile spiral (3) which promotes the renewal of the oil in the cavity and on the opposite face thanks to the kinematics of the spiral mobile (3).
- the minimum distance between adjacent pockets (222) may be substantially less than or equal to an orbit diameter, and chosen to ensure a ratio (pocket area / stop surface) of between 20% and 50%.
- the pockets (222) are made on the face of the abutment equipped with the washer (9) reported in polymer, and their depth is less than or equal to the thickness of the polymer layer, which makes their realization more economical and especially ensures a connection between pockets and non-aggressive flat part for the opposing part.
- the pockets (222) can be interconnected by communication channels (214) of small width in order to promote the renewal of the oil they trap, and thus prevent the heating of the interface, in particular on machines having to operate at high rotational speeds and / or having a radially extended axial abutment (for example when the abutment width is greater than six times the eccentricity of the orbital motion of the movable spiral).
- the channels (214) connecting the adjacent pockets will be arranged to allow, step by step, a circulation of the oil between the inner diameter and the outer diameter of the thrust washer (9); advantageously the channels (214) will be arranged in the tangential direction, in the favorable direction vis-à-vis the movement of the mobile spiral (3).
- Said tangential direction is oriented so that the channels (214) are perpendicular to the direction of instantaneous displacement of the mobile spiral (3) at the point where the axial stop is the most loaded.
- Said channel orientation (214) and the direction of movement of the movable scroll (3) are shown in Fig. 9.
- Radial grooves (212) may also be made on the surface of the thrust washer (9), to facilitate the supply of the oil contact and reduce the power dissipated by shearing the oil film.
- the depth of these striations is comparable to the previously presented pouches (222).
- the number of striations, their orientation and their width can be adapted according to various parameters, such as the type of fluid used or the type of oil used.
- An annular groove (223) may be provided on the active face of the metal-polymer washer (9) in the thickness of the polymer, defining one or more annular chambers (223) between the rear face of the mobile spiral (3) and the thrust washer (9) as shown in Fig. 19.
- This annular chamber (223) is supplied with working fluid (808) at a higher pressure than the ambient pressure of the abutment by one or more holes (225) opening in the bottom of the mobile spiral (3), and thus applies a selected pressure - by the position of the bore - to compensate for a part of the effort axial to which is subjected the mobile spiral (3) due to the pressure distribution in the spirals (2 and 3).
- This pocket (223) is dynamically sealed on its edges (226) thanks to the accommodation capacity of the polymer, the seal being further improved by the presence of the oil in the working fluid (808).
- the seal obtained is all the more effective as the axial pressure force is important, because of a crushing of the more pronounced polymer.
- the assembly achieves a reduction in the net axial force passing between the mobile spiral (3) and the abutment support (220) via the polymer abutment washer (9), in order to reduce the local heat dissipation of it and improve the performance of the machine (804).
- the metal-polymer washer (9) can be installed on the fixed support (220), in this case the chamber (223) comprises at least locally an extension (224) of dimension substantially close to the orbit diameter, in order to be fed continuously by the bore (225) arranged in the mobile spiral (3).
- several holes (225) in the mobile scroll can feed several extensions (224), allowing said extensions to have a more limited dimension, in particular less than an orbit diameter, without interruption of the pressure supply of the room (223).
- the washer (9) By its implantation in the fixed support, the washer (9) will be subjected to a lower temperature and will be cooled by conduction to the fixed support (220).
- the metal-polymer washer (9) can be installed at the rear of the mobile spiral (3), the annular chamber can thus have a limited and constant radial extent, which is favorable vis-à-vis the length the escape path between the chamber (223) and the pressure of the surrounding chamber (817).
- the axial abutment support (220) is formed on an annular ring-shaped ring (210).
- the diameter of this tee (210) and its thickness has been calculated so that the bending of the abutment support (220) in the axial direction conforms to the bending of the mobile spiral (3) when the spirals (2 and 3) are under pressure.
- This allows the contact pressure on the thrust washer (9) to remain homogeneous and to avoid any stress peak on its inner circumference (in the case where said annular ring is too rigid) or external (in the case where said spiral is too rigid).
- the surface of the thrust washer (9) is flat, in order to minimize the contact pressures.
- the inner edge of this surface (211), as well as the edges of the mobile spiral end stop surface (3), visible in FIG. 4, have a chamfer (310) with a very small angle, typically between 1 degree and 5 degrees. This chamfer allows the oil to be distributed on the surface, and creates a beneficial hydrodynamic effect for the lubrication of the contact between the moving spiral (3) and the axial abutment washer (9).
- the transition between the flat rear portion (317) of the abutment and this chamfer (310) mobile spiral side (3) is achieved through a fillet (316).
- the bottom of the casing (5) also has a central shaft outlet whose inner tubular surface is machined to receive the bearing (103), the shaft end seal (71) and possibly the second end seal. tree (70).

- This chamber (202) is pierced by a vent (203) opening outwards, in the lower part of said annular chamber (202), when the machine is mounted on a motor, to allow the evacuation of any leaks from fluid (Work fluid (808), or possibly fluid present in the associated rotary machine (801).
- the seals (70, 71) are annular lip seals, the lips being oriented in opposite directions to the chamber (202) to promote sealing of the machine (804) relative to the working fluid (808) of a part and sealing against the fluids present in the associated rotary machine (801) on the other hand.
- the chamber (202) forms a fluid recovery volume to evacuate to the outside, and prevent contamination between the two machines (804 and 801).
- These lip seals could be replaced by any other dynamic sealing device (seals with mechanical seal for example) without this modifying the principle of the invention.
- the seal (71) is made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), for example a lip seal marketed under the reference BEKA 804 or BEKA 806 by the company FranceJoint (trade names).
- PTFE polytetrafluoroethylene

- the expansion machine (804) is connected to a rotating shaft (813) of the associated rotary machine (801).
- the coupling assembly (500) makes it possible to connect the shaft (13) of the expansion machine (804) to the shaft (813) of the associated rotary machine (801).

Since a part of the machine is mounted directly inside the casing of the associated rotary machine (801), the elements situated in the coupling zone (99) have an independent lubrication means, which can come from the oil used in the casing of the associated rotary machine (801). In this case, the oil flows associated with these two sources of lubrication are represented by black arrows in FIG. 10 for the flow of oil from the working fluid (808), and by gray and black arrows for the oil flow from the casing of the associated rotary machine (801).

(142) of said counterweight (14) by centrifugation. The oil adheres to the walls (142) by capillarity and is then driven by the rotational movement of the counterweight (14) into cavities (140). These cavities have a tangential ramp (143) to facilitate entry and a wedge (144) for oil to accumulate in the cavities (140). The progressive filling of the cavities (140) pushes the oil axially until it is projected on the rear face (317) of the mobile spiral (3).

- the shaft end bearing (104) and the elements constituting the coupling assembly (500) are implemented in the coupling zone (99), which can be implemented inside the machine housing. associated rotator (801).
- the lubricating means of the elements of this zone (99) being independent of the working fluid (808), they can therefore be lubricated by the oil mist present in the casing of the rotary machine (801), the flow being moreover forced by the rotation of the toothed wheel (10).
- the elements of said zone (99) can be lubricated by a permanent lubrication.
