How Roots-type Blowers ?

Roots-type blowers are positive displacement pumps that utilize two rotating lobes (or rotors) within a casing to move air or gas from one location to anotherThey operate on the principle of external compression, meaning the compression happens outside the blower itself. 

Here’s a more detailed explanation:
Working Principle:
  • Two Rotors:
    A Roots blower consists of two rotors with lobes that intermesh as they rotate. 

  • Trapping and Moving Air:
    As the rotors turn, they trap a fixed volume of air between the lobes and the casing. 

  • External Compression:
    The trapped air is then moved from the intake side to the exhaust side, where it is discharged into a system with a resistance, causing a pressure increase. 

  • No Internal Compression:
    Unlike other types of compressors, Roots blowers do not compress the air within the blower itself. 

Key Features:
  • Positive Displacement:
    Roots blowers are positive displacement machines, meaning they deliver a consistent volume of air for each revolution. 

  • Constant Flow:
    This positive displacement results in a relatively constant and predictable airflow. 

  • Low Pressure Applications:
    They are typically used in low-pressure applications, such as pneumatic conveying, aeration in wastewater treatment, and as superchargers in engines. 

  • Oil-Free Operation:
    Many Roots blowers are designed for oil-free operation, making them suitable for applications where oil contamination is a concern. 

In essence, a Roots blower acts like a pair of meshing gears that trap and transport air, creating a flow of air rather than compressing it internally.
