Abstract
The twin screw rotors for axis-parallel installation in displacement machines for compressible media have asymmetrical transverse profiles and numbers of wraps that are ≧2. Depending upon the wrapping angle (&agr;), the pitch (L) varies, which pitch increases in a first subdivision (T ) from the suction-side screw end, reaches a maximal value (L ) after one wrap, decreases in a second subdivision (T ) until a minimal value (L ), and is constant in a third subdivision (T ). The pitch course in the first subdivision (T ) is preferably mirror-symmetrical to that in the second subdivision (T ), within the subdivisions T to T , it is point-symmetrical to the mean values in almost all cases. Compact screw rotors, completely free of imbalance, can thereby be achieved with compression rates of 1.0 . . . 10.0, also without profile variation. Such rotors offer the best prerequisites for reduction in energy requirements, temperature, construction size, costs, as well as for free selection of working materials in applications in chemistry, pharmacy, packaging, and semiconductor technology.
