Roots blower / Roots-type supercharger - How does it work? (Animation)

www.bring-knowledge-to-the-wor...
In this animation we will explain the basic principles of roots blowers, which are used in cars.
Contents
1) Roots blower of the Bugatti Type 35
2) Roots blower rotors (twisted lobes vs. straight lobes)
3) Suction side and pressure side
4) Muscle cars and souped-up sports cars
5) Additional intercooler
6) Compressed air
7) Difference to a suction engine

this is some really high quality animation

[@rickstadel5285]

Yep -- it's darned difficult to imagine how it could be ANY better!

[@geemanbmw]

@@rickstadel5285 agreed

[@axxur9687]

[@ArsiniC11]

I subbed a long time ago because your explanations and animations are spot-on. Probably the easiest videos to learn how things work.

[@geemanbmw]

The Roots brothers brought me here. This is a superb animation. Thank you

[@grumpysteelman]

Excellent. This is the most accurate visual representation that I’ve found to help explain positive displacement superchargers.

[@superlativeOFgood]

Flawless mechanical animation.

[@gradientgamer5480]

i have alot of those found on broken thunderbolt

[@rainbow2710]

Excellent video, animation & explanation. Special respect to the engineers who invented the "Blower" over a century ago!

[@thegreatmechanizedape8262]

iv watched a lot of cgi/cad videos on youtube. this might be the best production iv seen. thank you.

[@EltallerdeJeffer]

Thomas, es usted un experto en la materia!

[@JerewB]

That was a great explanation and presentation. Cheers.

[@Voltechs]

This was exactly the introduction I needed to learn how/why superchargers work! Now I want one on my Tacoma.

Beautiful! Thank you!

Superb animation.

[@SandeepRawat-sl4pn]

Thanks for the information

[@chrisselke449]

I work at Roots building these and this is a good video explaining how they work.

[@muhammadzubair-vj2zw]

Well explained

[@shameemedavannappara]

Thanks sir for another video

[@StupidEngineer]

amazing

[@autopy9866]

I have been watching his videos for a long time now. His videos helped me a lot to understand engineering concepts than any book I have read so far. Animations are beyond amazing!!

[@gavindownes2213]

im here after 5 years :)

[@TheRyanator36910]

very cool

[@uncledisscary338]

Cool Video

[@arbiterodie7685]

Outstanding video. Interesting topic? Check. Well animated? Check. Cool camera work? Good background music? Well narrated? Check, check, and check. Good one, Thomas!

[@k0185123]

who came up this roots pump design? It's so amazing!!!!!!

[@exothermal.sprocket]

Need a twin-screw supercharger animation next!

[@catgirlsleepy]

This is the true oddly satisfying vid

[@user-js2ob4th3t]

Goooooooooooood! Go on to explain!

[@indiagamingcommunity7286]

Nice keep it up 😉😉

[@diplomatutorial3256]

Awesome

Great, just woooooooooowww!🔥🔥🔥

[@ayuniristanti8853]

such a great video. please make a blower exp

[@PickleOfPwnage]

Where'd the sexy accent go?

[@mauriciocandiago4379]

bom vídeo

[@boogerking7411]

I don't get it. Budack/atkinson engine tries to lower the air intake then this one tries to pump more air. What effect does it do?

[@letsdosomething6691]

I was today years old when I learned that the air goes around the outside of the supercharger. I always thought it got squeezed between the blades and I was very confused how that setup is supposed to move any amount of air. But now it makes way more sense.

[@garymcknight7503]

Can anything be done to the blower to increase the amount of air it pushes

[@fernandoarzate1409]

Does a roots supercharger become the single source of air flow by eliminating a regular air intake? or is the supercharger and addition to the regular air intake?

[@RegulerShowTV]

Fernando Arzate a roots type will entirely replace the normal intake manifold to make room for the intercooler.

[@chiragsomaraj5121]

What's the diff between this and twin screw?

[@Vruba-91]

What animation, 3d modeling program do you use? I'm graduating college and loving the 3DS max aspect of modeling, mental ray or vray, with key shot renderings. Whats a typical salary for doing stuff you do if i may ask? Also, great tutorial, instructional vids, helps me when i open up my supercharger to change out the isolator and re-lube the seals where the 2 rotors are attached too.

[@ThomasSchwenke-knowledge]

Hi, I use Carrara 8 Pro.

[@Vruba-91]

Thomas Schwenke thanks, like the animations and simple models.

[@leqitletriax_4811]

Are Supercharger motors gas-killers and do they much cost to build in a car? Aswell its a awesome video!

[@Turbohawk84]

What's the name of the background music in this video?

[@apatrenfo]

Where can I get one of these fidget spinners?

[@minergames3418]

Hoppit lol

[@1000BT]

My blower is not a fidget spinner

[@justtheadam3895]

You forget that twisted lobes are used because they provide consistent air flow

[@idontknowmyname4829]

Now you can enter to be a editor in Disney

[@thatonethattalksalot7656]

I can make a thunderbolt siren from a car root blower, WHAAATT!! I did not know that!!

[@Nb005]

They are basically the same parts

[@J19_vlogger74]

Oh, thank goodness I finally found another siren enthusiast here.

[@electric7487]

Hi, what is the name of the music used?

[@lostpockets2227]

there's a lazy af teacher at Universal Technical Institute using this video to teach his classroom. thanks for nothing UTI, I spent 20k to watch KZbin videos in a classroom

[@TheVitruvius]

Wow, Bugatti is such an innovative company

[@samc5898]

They didn't actually come up with the roots style blower. It was used on 2 stroke diesel engines long before it was used on a gasoline engine

[@TheVitruvius]

Sam C Thanks

[@KaiZen999XXX]

Nice fidget spinners.

[@capskcab]

can we know what programme are u using ? :)

[@ThomasSchwenke-knowledge]

Carrara 8 Pro :)

[@angelo_giachetti]

Have one on my newer Corvette. Heat is an issue for sure.

[@connor-does-wheel-stuf3877]

When you sent the liquid through the supercharger the angle made the rotors look like figit spinner's

[@KeramatZMode]

Can you reduce the frequency of "Support this channel" pop up to only three times in a video. It's kinda distracting. At start, middle and end of video. Love your videos!

[@ThomasSchwenke-knowledge]

Hi, no, I want to make sure that it's not easy to copy content from the animation.

[@frederikvestergaard1502]

Why does the air go around, and not on the inside of the rotors?

[@krismoe31]

Frederik Vestergaard there is no space for the air to occupy on the inside. On the outside the rotors move the air to the outlet and the "collapsing" of space force the air out of the housing

[@frederikvestergaard1502]

krismoe31 thanks dude. Just What i needed to hear! ^_^

look like a spinner

theres fidget spinners

[@Sauceboss421]

MrVenom get out

[@escapemyrevenge]

iMajestix DAMN RIGHT

[@wargames8503]

That makes the air more cancerous, leading to higher power outputs. That’s some advanced engineering.

[@supertrinigamer]

MrVenom Little shit, they're not. They're lobes.

[@minergames3418]

Lol

[@keith-tv9yn]

Fffffff.....idget spinner?

Looks like a fidget spinner

[@dylxnchn]

+0:59 why the heck does it look like a fidget spinner?

[@mromatic17]

That’s crazy that these have been around for over 100 years and we’re just barely embracing forced induction.
