Abstract: A scroll compressor includes a compression chamber that compresses a fluid, an outer peripheral passage into which the fluid flows from a motor chamber, and a suction passage draws in the fluid from the outer peripheral passage to the compression chamber. The compression chamber is defined by a fixed scroll and an orbiting scroll. The outer peripheral passage is defined by a third peripheral wall of a discharge housing member and a fixed peripheral wall of the fixed scroll. The suction passage is provided in the fixed peripheral wall and includes an upstream-side outer peripheral surface located between the suction passage and an electric motor in an axial direction of a rotary shaft. A distance from an axis of the rotary shaft to the upstream-side outer peripheral surface varies in the axial direction of the rotary shaft.
