 1. When the rotor is unmesh at the intake end of the
 cylinder, air is drawn into the cavity between the

 rotor cavity and the cylinder wall.

 3. As further rotation causes the main   how a screw
 rotor blades to roll into the secondary   compressor works
 rotor grooves, compression begins,
 reducing the volume and increasing
 the unit pressure.
