We designed the cutter profile for symmetric screw rotor and did vibration experiment of screw rotor manufactured by the designed cutter profile. The results of this study are summarized as follows. (1) We designed the cutter profile of screw rotor (4-6)(5-6) by using numerical analysis program. (2) The maximum amplitude and variation of amplitude of 5-6 profile rotor are about 30 - 36.7% and 10 - 25% smaller than those of 4-6 profile rotor, respectively. (3) As the angular velocity of rotor changes from 100 to 300 rpm, the vibration of X, Y axis in driving shaft of 5-6 profile rotor is about 10 - 20% smaller than that of 4-6 profile rotor.

In the conventional gerotor design, the circular arc tooth of the outer rotor is first introduced, and then the inner rotor profile is generated by simulating the outer rotor motion while the inner rotor is fixed. The profile generation of tooth meshing exhibits relativity; therefore, the outer rotor profile can be generated by the movement of the inner rotor. In this study, we propose the design of a gerotor with a pin-tooth inner rotor. First, the pin-tooth inner rotor is devised, and then the outer rotor profile is generated. The profile of the inner rotor is simply composed of equally arranged pins along a circle. The root of the inner rotor is designed as a conjugated arc of two pins. The trajectory of the pin center is obtained by the inner rotor operation, and then the outer rotor profile is determined as a parallel curve of the trajectory. In this gerotor design, the inner rotor has a simple configuration, and contact occurs between the pin parts of the inner rotor and the whole profile of the outer rotor. This affects the material selection and machining process. The pin tooth can be used to design the outer and inner rotors, enabling a double gerotor mechanism corresponding to a planetary gear system.

Recently a symmetric and non-symmetric profile of screw rotor has been designed in the interior. Howere the processing method of screw rotor and the cutter design for screw rotor were not studied. Therefor we could not make the shape of the screw rotor designed by profile function with computer. In this study we have made cutter profile design program and manufactured cutters for screw rotors using H.S.S We machined screw rotors of symmetric 4x6 profile non-sysmmetric 4x6 profile with almighty milling machine.

As the gerotor set with ideal profile meshes too tight, the reduction in the size of the rotor is generally adopted for a smooth operation. In this paper, a method of the profile modification for providing clearances was proposed. The meshing properties of the gerotor were analyzed and the non-boundary section of the inner rotor was identified, which denoted that the adjacent chambers were in the same pressure state. Clearances were imposed on the non-boundary section of the inner rotor, and then the profile of that section was modified as a composite curve of arcs. The other sections of the inner rotor were also interpolated as arcs. Thus, the whole profile of the inner rotor was designed as a composite curve of arcs.

A gerotor set consists of two elements, an inner rotor and an outer rotor. The outer rotor has one more tooth than the inner rotor and has its centerline positioned at a fixed eccentricity from the centerline of the inner rotor. Although gerotors come in a variety of geometric configurations, all gerotor sets share the basic principle of having generated tooth profiles that provide continuous tight sealing during operation. The size of the gerotor is proportional to the number of teeth and the amount of eccentricity. The interior of an inner rotor with a large number of teeth has an enough space to include other machine elements. In this paper, the double gerotor mechanism, constructed by putting a small gerotor in the interior of a large inner rotor, is conceptualized. The double gerotor set is composed of an inner rotor, a planetary rotor, and an outer rotor. The inside profile of the planetary rotor corresponds to the outer rotor profile of the small gerotor, and the outside profile is the inner rotor profile of the large gerotor. In the double gerotor, the centers of the inner and the outer rotor are coincident because the eccentricities of two gerotors are balanced. The operation of a double gerotor is examined by analyzing the planetary motion, and a feasibility study for application of the double gerotor for hydraulic motors and pumps is performed. The double gerotor set has much application potential as a component of hydraulic systems.

The performance of screw air compressor is affected by rotor profile, lobe number, air end wrap angle, rotor L/D ratio, suction and discharge ports, revolutions of air end and load regulation control, etc. In general, an efficient screw compressor needs a rotor profile of which has a large flow cross-section area, short sealing lines and a small blow-hole. In this study, experimental study was performed with newly designed $5{\times}6$ rotor profile and various shapes of air end. Results show that the measured specific power consumption of the newly designed screw compressor appeared to be lower than any other published data for the equivalent screw compressors manufactured.

The performance of screw compressor depends on lots of design parameters of rotor profile, such as length of seal line, wrap angle, blow hole, suction and discharge port size, number of rotor lobe, etc. The optimum rotor profile makes it possible to increase the compression efficiency with low energy consumption, and to minimize the loss of power. In this research, a new rotor profile design and performance analysis are done by computer simulation. It is expected that the volumetric efficiency is improved because the internal leakage is reduced due to the minimization of blow hole and clearance, and the stiffness of rotors is increased due to the reduction of length to diameter ratio. Also, the specific power consumption will be secured for use ranging from low to high operation speed.

To design high-effective profile in screw rotor profile using in screw compressor, we design the symmetric type changing the number of lobes and the non-symmetric type changing the neighbourhood of the top point of lobe. Then, we calculated the performance value of profile according to the scale of these non-symmetric's wrap angle. We had the results as follows. 1. About the non-symmetric case, the larger a wrap angle is the shorter seal line is and the smaller blow hole is, thus we know what the large wrap angle profile is better than the small one. 2. We know what the non-symmetric profile is better than the symmetric profile in the result of the compare of seal line's length, blow hole's area, volume curve. 3. About the non-symmetric case, the deformation of the neighbourhood of lobe's top point of the rotor profile has a large effect upon the increase of performance because the length of seal line became short and the area of blow hole is small.

The purpose of this paper is to design cutter profiles for manufacturing rotors of screw compressor, which are based on universal milling machine. The surface profile of screw rotor which is helicoidal is derived as brief equation through the coordinates transformation of the section perpendicular to rotor axis. And the equations of contact lines between a cutter and the surface profile of screw rotor are derived. The computer program which can analyze the equation of contact lines numerically and design the cutter profiles of screw rotor is made, and verified through measuring screw rotors which are menufactured as the designed cutter by the computer program.
