Conveyor distance of Roots blower

As a widely used equipment in the industrial field, the conveying distance of Roots blower is an important parameter for users to choose and use. Understanding the conveying distance and influencing factors of Roots blowers is of great significance for the correct use and maintenance of Roots blowers.
1. Basic concept of Roots blower
Roots blower is a type of positive displacement fan that rotates inside the casing through two interlocked rotors, sucking in gas from the inlet and compressing it before discharging it. Due to its simple structure and stable operation, Roots blowers have been widely used in fields such as sewage treatment, pneumatic conveying, and aquaculture.
2. Definition of the conveying distance of Roots blower
The conveying distance of a Roots blower refers to the distance that the Roots blower can transport gas or materials. The conveying distance is an important performance parameter of Roots blower, which directly affects its application effect.
3. Factors affecting the conveying distance of Roots blower
The conveying distance of Roots blower is affected by various factors, mainly including the following aspects:
3.1 Air volume
The air volume of a Roots blower directly affects its conveying distance. The larger the air volume, the farther the conveying distance; The smaller the air volume, the closer the conveying distance.
3.2 Pressure
The pressure of the Roots blower also affects its conveying distance. The higher the pressure, the farther the conveying distance; The lower the pressure, the closer the conveying distance.
3.3 Pipeline diameter
The diameter of the pipeline of the Roots blower affects its conveying distance. The larger the diameter of the pipeline, the lower the gas flow resistance and the farther the transportation distance; The smaller the diameter of the pipeline, the greater the gas flow resistance and the closer the transportation distance.
3.4 Material Characteristics
The material characteristics conveyed by the Roots blower also affect its conveying distance. The higher the material density, the closer the conveying distance; The lower the material density, the farther the conveying distance.
3.5 Environmental Temperature
The ambient temperature of Roots blower affects its conveying distance. The higher the ambient temperature, the lower the gas density, and the closer the transportation distance; The lower the ambient temperature, the higher the gas density, and the farther the transportation distance.
4. Calculation of the conveying distance of Roots blower
The conveying distance of Roots blower can be calculated by the following formula:
\[ L = \frac{P \times D}{f \times \rho} \]
Among them\ (L \) is the conveying distance (m), \ (P \) is the pressure of the Roots blower (Pa), \ (D \) is the diameter of the pipeline (m), and \ (f \) is the gas flow resistance coefficient\ (\ rho \) is the gas density (kg/m3).
5. Example of Roots blower conveying distance
Assuming the pressure of a Roots blower is 10000 Pa, the diameter of the pipeline is 0.1 m, the gas flow resistance coefficient is 0.02, and the gas density is 1.2 kg/m3. According to the above formula, calculate the conveying distance:
\[ L = \frac{10000 \times 0.1}{0.02 \times 1.2} = 4166.67 \, \text{m} \]
6. Conclusion
The conveying distance of Roots blower is an important parameter for users to choose and use, which is influenced by factors such as air volume, pressure, pipeline diameter, material characteristics, and environmental temperature. By accurately calculating the conveying distance of the Roots blower, its stable operation in practical applications can be ensured and production efficiency can be improved.
