DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/4833839· OSTI ID:4833839
The general design of a Holweck-type molecular pump is considered. The design consists of a stationary helical pumping groove cut inside a cylindrical bore and a closely fitting smooth cylindrical rotor spinning concentrically inside this housing. Approximate analytical expressions were obtained for the pumping speed and ultimate pressure ratio of this type pump. (J.R.D.)
