Abstract
A Moineau device includes a stator that interfaces to a rotor whereby fluid flows through cavities between the stator and rotor that progress axially as the rotor is rotated relative to the stator. At least one of the stator and the rotor is realized from a nanocomposite that includes a polymeric matrix with carbon nanotubes dispersed therein.
