摘要:
A rotary device includes a first rotor rotatable about a first axis and having at its periphery a recess bounded by a curved surface, and a second rotor counter-rotatable to the first rotor about a second axis, parallel to the first axis, and having a radial lobe bounded by a curved surface, the first and second rotors being coupled for intermeshing rotation, wherein the first and second rotors of each section intermesh in such a manner that on rotation thereof, a transient chamber of variable volume is defined, the transient chamber having a progressively increasing or decreasing volume between the recess and lobe surfaces, the transient chamber being at least in part defined by the surfaces of the lobe and the recess; the ratio of the maximum radius of the lobe rotor and the maximum radius of the recess rotor being greater than 1.
