ABSTRACT:
An axial flow positive displacement turbine includes inner and outer bodies having offset inner and outer axes respectively extending between a relatively high pressure inlet and a relatively low pressure outlet. At least one of the bodies is rotatable about its axis. The inner and outer bodies have intermeshed inner and outer helical blades wound about the inner and outer axes respectively. The inner and outer helical blades extend radially outwardly and inwardly respectively. Each of the bodies has at least two blades. There is one more or one less outer helical blades than inner helical blades. The inner and outer bodies may both be rotatable about inner and outer axes and geared together in a fixed gear ratio. The turbine may have first and second sections with a first twist slope greater than a second twist slope respectively of the inner and outer helical blades.
