Diesel engines have mostly a Roots blower or piston pump for scavenging.

With advanced angle exhaust timing, uniflow engines can be supercharged with a crankshaft-driven ( piston or Roots ) blower.

Some designs use a mechanically driven Roots blower, whilst marine diesel engines normally use exhaust-driven turbochargers, with electrically-driven auxiliary blowers for low-speed operation when exhaust turbochargers are unable to deliver enough air.

The Roots blower was manufactured in Connersville for many years.

A Roots blower with two-lobed rotors.

The Roots type supercharger or Roots blower is a positive displacement lobe pump which operates by pumping a fluid with a pair of meshing lobes not unlike a set of stretched gears.

This includes low vacuum applications, with the Roots blower acting alone, or use as part of a high vacuum system, in combination with other pumps.

The simplest form of a Roots blower has cycloidal rotors, constructed of alternating tangential sections of hypocycloidal and epicycloidal curves.

Because rotary lobe pumps need to maintain a clearance between the lobes, a single stage Roots blower can pump gas across only a limited pressure differential.

Roots pumps are capable of pumping large volumes but as they only achieve moderate compression, it is not uncommon to see multiple Roots blower stages, frequently with heat exchangers ( intercoolers ) in between to cool the gas.

Because a Roots type blower pumps air in discrete pulses ( unlike a screw compressor ), pulsation noise and turbulence may be transmitted downstream.

The operating principle is similar to that of a Roots blower.

Large two-stroke engines do not use crankcase compression ; instead they use a separate blower or supercharger, either a mechanical blower such as a Roots blower or else a turbocharger.
