Energy-saving opportunities are present everywhere in compressed air systems, it just takes minimal effort to recognize where energy can be saved. However, it takes concerted efforts to ensure that these energy savings can be maintained. The higher the pressure used in compressed air systems or application equipment, the more cost goes into producing this pressure. (a) With aid of a diagram, compare the working principle between the lobe compressors and sliding-vane compressors.
