The helical rotary compressor ... essentially consists of two mating helically grooved rotors, a male (lobes) and a female (gullies), in a stationary housing ... with a four-lobe male rotor, normally the driver rotating at 3,600 rpm for instance, the six-lobe female rotor follows at [four-sixth x 3,600 rpm] ... Compression is obtained by direct volume reduction with pure rotary motion 1, record 1, English, - helical%20rotary%20compressor

Compresseurs à vis. Dans ce compresseur [...] les deux parties essentielles sont constituées par deux rotors taillés hélicoïdalement et montés dans un carter commun. Le rotor d'entraînement à vis possède quatre creux de dent. Le rotor entraîné, ou tiroir, a six creux de dent [...]. La rotation continuant, il se produit une réduction progressive du volume du gaz, ce qui entraîne une augmentation de pression. 1, record 1, French, - compresseur%20%C3%A0%20vis
