ABSTRACT:
A single rotary fluid unit can act either as a compressor or as an expander. Each unit has a casing enclosing two rotors moved in synchronism. The rotors sealingly engage and coact with each other and the casing walls to form chambers providing the necessary intake and exhaust functions. Two units can be connected together to operate in a mirror-like or reverse fashion whereby one unit is a compressor and the other unit is an expander. The thus formed compressor-expander units or apparatus can be connected to additional apparatus to form a Stirling cycle engine or an air cycle refrigeration apparatus.
