Popis: In order to investigate the flow characteristics and separation performance of oil-gas two-phase flow of dynamic pressure type lubricant-air separator, the influence of the structure form, temperature and inlet oil-gas ratio on the separation performance was studied based on the population balance model (PBM). The results show that, the combination of the built-in air outlet pipe and the tangential oil outlet pipe can improve the separation performance of the separator; when the oil flow rate is 6L/min and the temperature range is 100-250°C, the separation performance of the separator is improved with the increase of temperature; when the gas flow rate is 6L/min, the increase of the oil-gas ratio will cause the swirl intensity in the separator to be strengthened, and the separation performance of the separator will be improved.
