Abstract (en)

A screw compressor includes a casing (1), a screw rotor (3) disposed in the casing (1), a compression chamber (5) defined between the casing (1) and the screw rotor (3) to compress refrigerant gas, a slide groove (1 a) extending on the inner peripheral surface of the casing (1) along the rotational axis of the screw rotor (3), a refrigerant liquid passage (1b) extending through the casing (1) to bring the outside of the casing (1) into communication with the slide groove (1 a), and a slidable valve (8) for varying the internal volume ratio slidable on the slide groove (1 a) along the rotational axis of the screw rotor (3). The slidable valve (8) includes an injection port (8a) to bring the refrigerant liquid passage (1 b) into communication with the compression chamber (5) depending on the position of the slidable valve (8). The injection port (8a) is configured to shift between a first position and a second position. The injection port (8a) communicates with the refrigerant liquid passage (1 b) at the first position, and does not communicate with the refrigerant liquid passage (1 b) at the second position. The second position is closer to the suction end of the screw compressor than the first position.
