An oil-cooled type screw rotor assembly having a female rotor and a male rotor adapted to rotate around parallel axes in meshing relation to each other. The leading side flank of the female rotor is constituted by a first leading side flank formed by an arc of a radius R.sub.1 and a second leading side flank formed by an arc of a radius R.sub.2. Also, the trailing side flank of the female rotor is constituted by a first trailing side flank formed by an arc of the tooth ends of the male rotor having a radius R.sub.5 and a second trailing side flank formed by an arc of a radius R.sub.3 which is smaller than the radius R.sub.2 of the second leading side flank. The configuration of the teeth of the male rotor is materially formed by arcs of the leading and trailing side flanks of the female rotor.
An oil-cooled type screw rotor assembly having a female rotor and a male rotor adapted to rotate around parallel axes in meshing condition, wherein a leading side flank, as viewed in a normal direction of rotation, of said female rotor includes a first leading side flank formed by an arc of a radius R.sub.1 centered at a point outside of a pitch circle of said female rotor and a second leading side flank formed by an arc of a radius R.sub.2 centered at a point within said pitch circle, a trailing side flank of said female rotor includes a first trailing said flank generated by an arc of teeth end of said male rotor having a radius R.sub.5 centered at a point on a line interconnecting centers of rotations of said rotors and a second trailing side flank formed by an arc of a radius R.sub.3 smaller than the radius R.sub.2 of said second leading side flank of said female rotor centered at a point within said pitch circle, and wherein a tooth contour of teeth of said male rotor is substantially generated by the arcs of said leading side flanks and trailing side flanks of said female rotor.
