Abstract: In a single screw compressor, gates of a gate rotor mesh with helical grooves of the screw rotor in a casing. The casing has a low pressure space, and a divider wall covering the outer peripheral surface of the screw rotor to divide the fluid chamber formed by the helical groove from the low pressure space. An inlet is formed in the divider wall to partially expose the outer peripheral surface of the screw rotor to the low pressure space. The fluid chamber in a suction phase into which the low pressure fluid flows from the low pressure space is divided from the low pressure space by the gate entering the helical groove after the helical groove has moved from a position where the helical groove faces the inlet to a position where the helical groove is covered with the divider wall.

Abstract: A radiation detector device is provided that is capable of distinguishing between full charge collection (FCC) events and incomplete charge collection (ICC) events based upon a correlation value comparison algorithm that compares correlation values calculated for individually sensed radiation detection events with a calibrated FCC event correlation function. The calibrated FCC event correlation function serves as a reference curve utilized by a correlation value comparison algorithm to determine whether a sensed radiation detection event fits the profile of the FCC event correlation function within the noise tolerances of the radiation detector device. If the radiation detection event is determined to be an ICC event, then the spectrum for the ICC event is rejected and excluded from inclusion in the radiation detector device spectral analyses. The radiation detector device also can calculate a performance factor to determine the efficacy of distinguishing between FCC and ICC events.

The adjustment mechanism is configured to adjust a compression ratio of the compression chamber within a predetermined range. The adjustment mechanism adjusts the compression ratio to a minimum compression ratio immediately before or when operation of the adjustment mechanism is stopped.
