Oil injection serves three primary purposes: sealing clearances, lubricating the rotors, and cooling the gas. Heat and Mass Transfer interaction

Using CFD allows engineers to analyze cavitation, optimize rotor clearances, and predict thermodynamic behavior more accurately, transforming what was once a days-long process into hours.
