DESCRIPTION:

This is the center part of a progressing-cavity-pump (PCP-pump or moineau-pump)

It implements the design approach with alternating epi- and hypocycloids which avoids cusps/kinks (the curve is C1 but not C2 continous)

Right now it uses two and threefold symmetry for rotor and stator respectively, but it shouldn't be hard to change it to any N and (N+1) symmetry (it's prepared) like three and four for more sturdiness or one and two for more throughput.

It is a positive displacement pump and thus provides (if t
