Compression of water vapour as R718 is disclosed with and without addition of additives as an aqueous solution in rotational displacement machines, i.e. refrigeration, air-conditioning and heat pump technology. To largely avoid over or under-compression, it is proposed for the easiest possible adaptation of the currently effective internal volume ratio as so-called iV value in the displacer that the compressor housing starting from the outlet side with rotor profile length L.sub.R over a length L.sub.iV comprises planar, i.e. flat iV disks (3.sub.j) with the index j for 1≤j≤n; n is the number of disks; n≥1 with a width b.sub.j per iV disk having planar surfaces P.sub.F preferably perpendicular to the neutral axis A.sub.N. The iV disks are displaced in a targeted manner individually by movement control devices (5.sub.j) per iV disk in each case by a distance s.sub.i where 0<s.sub.i≤s.sub.j.

The invention relates to a spindle compressor designed as a twin-shaft rotary displacement machine for delivering and compressing flow media, particularly steam. It comprises a pair of spindle rotors in a compressor housing (1) comprising an inlet collecting space (11) and an outlet collecting space (12). The centre distance of the pair of spindle rotors is at least 10% longer on the inlet-side end than on the outlet-side end. Each of the two spindle rotors (2, 3) is driven by an electric motor (18, 19), and an electronic synchronisation controls the electric motors (18, 19) such that the spindle rotors (2, 3) rotate in a contact-free manner.

A rotor for a positive displacement compressor assembly having a housing defining an inlet, an outlet, and a rotor cavity in communication with the inlet and the outlet. The rotor may comprise a rotor body and a porous inner core enclosed within the rotor body. The rotor may comprise a tapered rotor body having an outer radius that decreases from a first end to a second end thereof. In one form, the positive displacement compressor assembly may comprise a supercharger assembly for an internal combustion engine.
