Devices for compressing a gaseous fluid each have a housing with a cylindrical cavity configured in the housing, in which a spiral nozzle assembly is arranged. As such, the spiral nozzle assembly is configured with a spirally revolving winding with a winding surface, which at least partially sealingly abuts an inner wall of the cylindrical cavity. Recesses configuring a filter function and a bypass function are arranged on the winding surface of the spirally revolving winding, or the winding surface of the spirally revolving winding is arranged to be spaced apart from the inner wall of the cylindrical cavity with a distance configuring a gap for a filter function and a bypass function in at least one partial area. Additionally thereto, or instead thereof, recesses configuring a filter function are each arranged on a collar surface of a collar connected to the spiral nozzle assembly.
A device for compressing a gaseous fluid comprising a housing with a cylindrical cavity configured in the housing, in which a spiral nozzle assembly is arranged, wherein the spiral nozzle assembly has a spirally revolving winding with a winding surface, wherein the winding surface is at least partially arranged to sealingly abut an inner wall of the cylindrical cavity, wherein recesses configuring a filter function and a bypass function are arranged on the winding surface of the spirally revolving winding, and/or in that the recesses configuring a filter function are arranged on a collar surface of a collar connected to the spiral nozzle assembly.
A device for compressing a gaseous fluid comprising a housing with a cylindrical cavity configured in the housing, in which a spiral nozzle assembly is arranged, wherein the spiral nozzle assembly has a spirally revolving winding with a winding surface, wherein the winding surface is at least partially arranged to sealingly abut an inner wall of the cylindrical cavity, wherein the winding surface of the spirally revolving winding is arranged to be spaced apart from the inner wall of the cylindrical cavity in at least one partial area with a distance configuring a gap for a filter function and a bypass function.
A method of operating a device for compressing a gaseous fluid in which a spiral nozzle assembly is arranged in a cylindrical cavity configured in a housing, which has a spirally revolving winding with a winding surface, wherein the winding surface is at least partially arranged to sealingly abut an inner wall of the cylindrical cavity, and wherein a mass flow of the gaseous fluid in the spiral nozzle assembly is passed through a spiral flow duct configured between revolutions of the spirally revolving winding, wherein a bypass function and a filter function are provided in an area of the winding surface of the spirally revolving winding, and/or in that the filter function is provided in an area of a collar surface of a collar configured on the spiral nozzle assembly, wherein the mass flow of the gaseous fluid is ensured by means of the bypass function through the spiral flow duct when the spirally revolving winding becomes blocked in an inlet area, and wherein particles contained in the gaseous fluid which exceed a predetermined size are filtered out by means of the filter function.
