Research status and development trend of noise generation and suppression of Roots pump
The problem of excessive noise generated during operation has drawn significant attention.The fundamental structural characteristics and operational principles of the Roots pump were presented initially,identifying shell noise,mechanical noise and aerodynamic noise as the primary noise sources.Then,extensive research conducted by both domestic and foreign scholars in recent years on noise con-trol for Roots pumps was examined and summarized,encompassing studies on noise mechanisms,structural optimization,and external noise reduction device technology,among others.Finally,based on current research findings,future prospects for the development of Roots pump noise control research were outlined.It is suggested from this study that enhancing precision and efficiency in numerical simu-lations,optimizing the structural design of Roots pump,developing new materials for sound reduction purposes,innovating techniques for controlling noise levels,and improving automation in sound control will be key areas of focus for future research on Roots pump noise reduction.
