Abstract
A method of operating a Moineau system to substantially eliminate vibrations, the method includes rotating a first rotational member, and rotating a second rotational member. Each of the first rotational member and the second rotational member includes a plurality of lobes. A first rotational speed of one of the first rotational member and the second rotational member is selected based on 1) a second rotational speed of the other of the first rotational member and the second rotational member and 2) the number of lobes of one of the first rotational member and the second rotational member to maintain eccentric force of one of the first and second rotational members below a predetermined threshold.
