Résumé
Archimedes screws are most commonly used in robust pumping and dewatering schemes, and for hydropower generation. Though they have been in use for almost three millennia, there is no investigation of their structural mechanics present in the published literature. This study presents novel techniques that were used to experimentally quantify deflection on an Archimedes screw under varying load conditions. A first-of-kind finite element analysis (FEA) model of an Archimedes screw was developed. The experimental results were used to evaluate the accuracy of the FEA model, and the model was then used to explore the impacts that varying the number of screw blades on the structural response in an Archimedes screw.
