Abstract

See full text

A roots-style blower (210) has a housing (214), rotors (230) and manifolds (212) for the housing (214). The housing (214) forms an inlet plenum (220), a rotor chamber (224) and a discharge plenum (228). The rotors (230) have straight lobes (232) spaced by pockets (240). The pocket (240X) that traps gas between a leading and following lobe (232) and an inside wall of the rotor chamber (224) is a temporary closed cell (240X). The manifolds (212) and the housing (214) form a pair of back-pass loops (250-251), one for each rotor (230). Each back-pass loop (250-252) comprises a back-pass chamber (250), outer channels (252) from the discharge plenum (228) to the back-pass chamber (250), and inner channels (251) to the rotor chamber (224). Wherein, the back-pass chamber (250) volume as a percentage of closed cell (240X) volume ranges between about fifty-six percent (56%) and one-hundred-seventeen percent (117%).
