Abstract
An inertial gas-liquid separator includes a housing having an inlet for receiving a gas-liquid stream, and an outlet for discharging a gas stream. Nozzle structure in the housing has a plurality of nozzles receiving the gas-liquid stream from the inlet and accelerating the gas-liquid stream through the nozzles. An inertial collector in the housing in the path of the accelerated gas-liquid stream causes a sharp directional change thereof and in preferred form has a rough porous collection surface causing liquid particle separation from the gas-liquid stream of smaller size liquid particles than a smooth non-porous impactor impingement surface and without the sharp cut-off size of the latter, to improve over all separation efficiency including for smaller liquid particles. Various housing configurations and geometries are provided.
