NOZZLE, INERTIAL SEPARATOR AND METHOD OF SUPERSONIC SEPARATION OF COMPONENT Russian patent published in 2004 - IPC

FIELD: separation of component from flow. SUBSTANCE: proposed inertial separator includes convergent-divergent nozzle for forming emulsion flow at supersonic velocity whose neck has performance diameter D* and performance diameter of inlet is D1 which is located at distance L1 in flow above nozzle neck ; outlet has performance diameter D2 located at distance L2 in flow below nozzle neck at ratio L₂(D₂-D*) more than 50 but lesser than 220; separating part is located below nozzle and is provided with at least one outlet for separated component and at least one outlet for remaining gas flow. EFFECT: enhanced efficiency of separation. 12 cl, 1 tbl, 1 ex
