FIELD: mechanics.
SUBSTANCE: separator comprises a taper shell, coaxial with a vortex tube, and is set to lap over by its larger diameter end face the vortex tube cylindrical casing end face and rigidly fixed to the said tube via a wall covering the taper shell larger end face, the shell being provided with central axial bore matching the vortex tube cylindrical casing outer diameter. The outlets for separated substances are formed by a free end face of the taper shell for low-weight and smaller-density components, air included, and by a hole in its lateral surface for higher-weight and higher-density components of the substance being separated. The wall covering the taper shell larger-diameter end face can be provided with an additional hole to let out a third component of the substance being separated with intermediate weight and density characteristics. The device can incorporate several coupled overlapping taper shells with the larger end face of every next taper shell goes covered by the wall with the central axial bore with the diameter, matching the outer diameter of the previous taper shell adjoining the smaller end face.
EFFECT: simpler design and higher efficiency.
