The operating principle of a single-screw compressorSingle-screw compressors operate through the seamless interaction of two helical rotors, one male and one female, intricately intermeshed. Both rotors boast multiple concave teeth and spin in opposite directions, maintaining a precise gap of just 5 to 10 microns with each other and the casing. The male rotor, typically engine or motor-driven, powers the female rotor via a finely-tuned oil film or synchronized gears, ensuring a frictionless metal contact during operation. As they spin, the rotors draw gas into their grooves from the intake port, which then seals off to form a compression chamber. Here, lubricating oil is introduced, enhancing sealing, cooling, and lubrication. This rotation decreases chamber volume, compressing the gas into an efficient oil-gas mix, which is released through the exhaust port upon cycle completion, epitomizing the intake-compression-exhaust efficiency.
