Abstract

This article analyzes the design of the power part of gas separators of various manufacturers, reveals the causes of backflows, which can lead to hydro-abrasive wear of the elements of the flow-through part, reduction of the separation properties as a result of the gas-liquid mixture flow dispersion, and decrease of pressure gradient in the separation chamber. A mathematical model was selected, hydrodynamic calculations of design options and upgrading were carried out, and animproved flow part of the separator was developed. Bench tests were conducted to confirm the improved parameter of the product.
