Study of a dry fixed-vane revolving compressor by Toh, Shaun Jia Hui

“…The changes are made in areas where there is high metal-to-metal contact such as the vane-side, rotor end faces and journal bearings. Major changes to equations were made in the rotor end-face expressions, where the rubbing at the upper end-face is not considered as non-contact occurs as a result of gravity. …”
