A rotor (20, 120) is arranged rotatable about a rotational axis in the interior space and is provided with a rotor core (21, 121) and a number of vanes (23, 123), which are movable in relation to the core. The rotor continuously divides, in sealing relation with the stator, upon rotation of the rotor the interior space into at least two mutually separated chambers (14a, 14b, 114a-d). Each chamber comprises an inlet opening (17a, 17b, 112a) and an outlet opening (18a, 18b, 112b).
