Blower Mechanism

The basic operating principle is based on a set of two symmetrical rotors rotating in opposite directions. By means of the rotors rotating motion the inlet air volume is expanded. While one of the lobe sweep past the inlet port, one part of the air is captured, compressed and expelled through the outlet port. Figure 1 shows the retation sequence in stages with air volume V captured between lobe( 1 ) &( 2 ) With a pair of 3lobes' rotors, a total of 6 such cycle takes place in one full revolution.
