how does a roots blower work

How does a roots blower work

  • Working principle:
  • Roots blower works with two rotors meshing with each other. When the gear drives the rotor to rotate, relative motion occurs between the two rotors, thereby forming airflow. One of the rotors is called the main rotor and the other is the passive rotor. The gear of the main rotor drives the passive rotor, which rotates simultaneously but in opposite directions. Gas is continuously entered and discharged in the gap between the two rotors, thereby generating pressure or extracting exhaust gas.
  • Structural features:
  • The rotor and casing of Roots blowers are usually made of high-strength alloy materials to ensure their durability and stability. The rotor surface is covered with coating to reduce internal friction and wear. In addition, the Roots blower is equipped with a cooling system to ensure the heat dissipation effect of the equipment during long-term operation.

    Does a Roots blower compress air?

    • The wind generated by Roots blowers is not typical compressed air. Although Roots blowers increase the pressure of gases, they work differently than typical compressed air equipment such as compressors. Roots blowers primarily push gas into a pipe through a rotating impeller rather than increasing gas pressure through a compression process.

    What is the difference between a Roots blower and a blower?

    • 1.Structural differences
    • The unique structure of the Roots blower is composed of an outer rotor and an inner rotor. The two rotors mesh with each other to produce the effect of gas compression and transportation. This structure has the advantages of small size, low noise, no vibration and no oil pollution. The blower generates airflow through the rotation of the impeller in the casing, and then compresses and transports the airflow through the action of the air guide assembly. The blower has the advantages of compact structure, low energy consumption and long service life.
    • 2.Differences in working principles
    • Roots blower generates gas compression and transportation effects in the casing through the mutual meshing of two rotors. Roots blowers usually rotate at very high speeds, so they require specialized care and maintenance when working. The blower generates airflow through the rotation of the impeller, and then compresses and transports the airflow through the cooperation of the guide components. The working speed of the blower is usually low and the operation is simple, so you need to pay attention to correct operation and maintenance during use.
    roots blower

    Lean and dense phase conveying

    • Dilute phase conveying system
    • The dilute phase conveying system uses compressed gas as kinetic energy to transport materials suspended in the air flow along the pipeline. The materials during the transportation process will form a gas-solid two-phase mixture with the gas.
    • Applicable materials: powdery, granular, liquid and other dry materials, often used for conveying materials with good fluidity.
    • Advantages:
      (1) Since the material has a low packing density and forms a gas-solid two-phase mixture with gas, the gaps between the materials are large, which can effectively avoid pipeline blockage during transportation.
      (2) The material-gas ratio is small, the conveying speed is fast, and it is suitable for short conveying distances.
      (3) The equipment structure is relatively simple, without too many valves, and maintenance is simple.
    • Disadvantages: The conveying efficiency is low and it is easy to cause wear to the material due to too fast flow rate.
    • Dense phase conveying system
    • The dense phase conveying system promotes denser materials to be conveyed to the discharge point at a relatively low conveying speed by creating a pressure difference within the pipeline.
    • Applicable materials: bulk materials with large particles and larger particle sizes, often used for conveying coal, ore, etc.
    • Advantages:
      (1) The dense phase conveying system is suitable for large flow conveying requirements and long conveying distance.
      (2) The material-gas ratio is high, the transportation is stable, and the wear on the materials is low.
      (3) The energy consumption is relatively low, it can effectively reduce the emission of dust pollution, and is more environmentally friendly.
    • Disadvantages: Due to the high density of materials in the system, blockage may occur.

            what is a root blower

            Root blower working principle

            • The working principle of Roots blower can be simply summarized into the following steps:
            • 1.Suction stage: When the rotor rotates, the volume of the chamber gradually increases, forming a low-pressure area.This low-pressure area attracts outside air into the chamber.
            • 2.Compression stage: As the rotor continues to rotate, the volume of the chamber gradually decreases.This process causes the air to become compressed, increasing its pressure.
            • 3.Exhaust stage: When the volume of the chamber reaches the minimum value, the compressed air will be discharged from the chamber.At this time, the rotation of the rotor will increase the volume of the chamber again to prepare for the next round of suction.
            • By repeating the above steps, the Roots blower can continuously suck in, compress and discharge air.This working principle enables Roots blowers to produce high-pressure, high-flow airflow.

                Roots dresser blower

                Roots blower is a volumetric blower with impeller end face and front and rear end covers of the fan. The principle is a rotary compressor that uses two blade-shaped rotors to move relative to each other in the cylinder to compress and transport gas. This type of blower has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture. It is widely used in aquaculture oxygenation, sewage treatment aeration, cement transportation, and is more suitable for gas transportation and pressurization systems in low-pressure situations. It can also be used as a vacuum pump.

                roots blower

                Roots blower working principle

                Roots blower is a type of positive displacement fan. It has two three-bladed impellers that rotate relatively in a space sealed by the casing and wall panels. Since each impeller adopts an involute or epicycloid envelope Line, the three blades of each impeller are exactly the same, and the two impellers are also exactly the same, which greatly reduces the difficulty of processing. The impeller is processed using CNC equipment, which ensures that when the center distance between the two impellers remains unchanged, no matter where the two impellers rotate, a certain minimum gap can be maintained, thereby ensuring that gas leakage is within the allowable range.

                roots blower

                What is the difference between a Roots blower and a blower?

                • Roots blowers and blowers both belong to the category of centrifugal fans, but they are very different in structure and working principle:
                • Structural differences
                  The unique structure of the Roots blower is composed of an outer rotor and an inner rotor. The two rotors mesh with each other to produce the effect of gas compression and transportation. This structure has the advantages of small size, low noise, no vibration and no oil pollution.
                  The blower generates airflow through the rotation of the impeller in the casing, and then compresses and transports the airflow through the action of the air guide assembly. The blower has the advantages of compact structure, low energy consumption and long service life.
                • Differences in working principles
                  Roots blower generates gas compression and transportation effects in the casing through the mutual meshing of two rotors. Roots blowers usually rotate at very high speeds, so they require specialized care and maintenance when working.
                  The blower generates airflow through the rotation of the impeller, and then compresses and transports the airflow through the cooperation of the guide components. The working speed of the blower is usually low and the operation is simple, so you need to pay attention to correct operation and maintenance during use.

                What are the benefits of a Roots blower?

                • High efficiency: Due to its internal sealing structure, the Roots blower can avoid gas leakage while transporting air flow, thereby achieving efficient and stable gas transport. Moreover, its operation efficiency is high and it can save certain costs in terms of energy consumption.
                • Low noise: Compared with other types of blowers, Roots blowers have very low noise. This is due to the special noise elimination technology used in its design, which can ensure that the noise during operation is controlled within a reasonable range. It is especially suitable for Noise-sensitive work environment.
                • Large displacement: Roots blowers can provide a large amount of gas transportation capacity. In the industrial production process, a large amount of gas is often needed to drive production equipment. At this time, Roots blowers can take advantage of their large displacement characteristics, thus better to meet the needs of the production process.
                • Wear resistance: The internal structure of the Roots blower is reasonably designed, and there will be no friction or collision between the master rotor and the slave rotor, thereby avoiding wear and tear of machine parts. At the same time, in terms of manufacturing process, wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials are used to ensure the long-term use of the machine.
                • Strong adaptability: Roots blowers can adapt to different working conditions such as various gases, pressures, flows, etc. Roots blowers can adapt to the different media such as high pressure, high temperature, corrosion, viscosity, etc. that are often encountered in industrial production. able to meet needs.

                    dense phase pneumatic conveying

                    Dense phase pneumatic conveying

                    As the superficial gas velocity increases, the particle density becomes uniform, the force of particle suspension and acceleration is equal to the particle static pressure head, the gas-solid phase approaches plug flow, and the radial void ratio is evenly distributed.

                    pneumatic conveying

                    What is dense phase conveying?

                    • Dense phase transportation is a process that uses airflow to transport solid powdery materials. When the density of the particle flow in the pipeline is close to the bed density in the critical fluidized state, it is called dense phase transportation‌.
                    • Characteristics of dense phase transportation
                    • ‌Small gas flow‌: The gas flow required for dense phase transportation is small, and generally the material mass transported by unit mass of air is relatively large.
                    • ‌Large air flow pressure drop‌: The air flow pressure drop is large, the movement speed of particles is low, but the wear between particles and pipelines is small.
                    • ‌Short conveying distance‌: Commonly found in catalyst circulation pipes in petroleum catalytic cracking and overflow pipe equipment in multi-jet fluidized beds, the conveying distance is generally relatively short.
                    pneumatic conveying

                    What is the difference between dilute and dense phase pneumatic conveying?

                    Dilute phase pneumatic conveying usually refers to a gas-solid two-phase mixture with smaller particles suspended in the gas, also known as gas suspension conveying. In dilute-phase pneumatic conveying, the interaction force between gas and solid particles is smaller, and there are fewer contacts and collisions between particles. Dilute phase pneumatic conveying is suitable for conveying smaller particles and powders. The conveying speed is fast, but the conveying volume is relatively small, and it is prone to problems such as particle clogging and gas leakage.

                    • Dense phase pneumatic conveying refers to a gas-solid two-phase mixture with larger particles suspended in the gas, also known as gaseous fluidized bed conveying.
                    • In dense phase pneumatic conveying, the interaction force between gas and solid particles is relatively large, and contact and collision between particles often occur.
                    • Dense phase pneumatic conveying is suitable for conveying larger particles and materials with greater adhesion between particles.
                    • The conveying volume is relatively large, but the conveying speed is relatively slow.
                    • Therefore, the difference between dilute phase pneumatic conveying and dense phase pneumatic conveying lies in the particle size of the conveyed material and the interaction force between the gas and solid phases, as well as the applicable conveying conditions and restrictions.
