Numerical investigation on a compact oil-gas separator cylinder using experimentally-validated models

An oil-gas separator recycles lubricating oil and purifies the working fluid for a screw compressor in operation. A compact oil-gas separator not only utilizes space effectively but also shortens the circulation path of oil. However, the opacity of the separator obstructs visualization of the comple...
