Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3981987A1] A screw compressor includes a casing, a screw rotor, a gate rotor, and a slide valve. A low-pressure flow path allowing low-pressure refrigerant before being suctioned into the screw rotor to flow therethrough, a high-pressure flow path allowing high-pressure refrigerant discharged from a discharge port to flow therethrough, and a merge flow path merging the low-pressure flow path and the high-pressure flow path are provided. A pressure switching mechanism switching pressure of the refrigerant is disposed in at least one of the low-pressure flow path, the high-pressure flow path, and the merge flow path. The merge flow path applies pressure applying refrigerant, pressure of which is switched by the pressure switching mechanism, from a downstream-side end part to one of end parts of the slide valve.
