A separator includes an inlet manifold, a throat, and an outlet manifold. The inlet manifold is configured to receive a flow of the mixture. The throat is attached to the inlet manifold. The throat separates heavy species of the mixture from light species of the mixture. The outlet manifold is attached to the throat. The outlet manifold includes an outlet valve and a throttle shaft. The outlet valve includes a cone-shaped inlet and a bowl-shaped outlet. The throttle shaft includes a shaft and a cone-shaped head. The cone-shaped head is positioned within the cone-shaped inlet and the shaft extends through the bowl-shaped outlet. The bowl-shaped outlet, the cone-shaped inlet, and the cone-shaped head are sized and shaped to control the flow of the heavy species through the outlet valve and the flow of the mixture through the separator.

A precleaner arrangement for separating a portion of entrained material from air flow air entering an engine air cleaner. The precleaner arrangement includes a precleaner housing and at least a first flexible air deflection vane with a fixed portion secured to the precleaner housing and a deflectable portion. The deflectable portion includes a curved section extending from the fixed portion and a tail section extending from the curved section. The deflectable portion is configured to deflect in response to a sufficient air flow rate change through the precleaner arrangement, in use. Some arrangements will also include a second stage, outlet vane assembly.

A water cooling/recirculating management system, including: a controller; a fluid displacement pump; a centrifugal separator; a germicide generator; and a primary side stream magnetic field generator.

A hanger for a turbine engine can include a first surface confronting a cooling airflow, a second surface facing a heated airflow, and a third surface radially outward of the first surface. The hanger can also include a cyclonic separator with a dirty air inlet and a clean air outlet, as well as a cooling air circuit extending through the cyclonic separator.

A flow separator includes a flow swirling arrangement and a particle collection space disposed in-line with an inlet and an outlet of a flow separator. The flow swirling arrangement includes a bladed arrangement disposed around a flow diverter. The particle collection space is an annular space disposed at an opposite end of a swirl region from the flow swirling arrangement. The annular space is disposed at the radially outward-most portion of the flow passage to collect particles via centrifugal force. A gas conduit may extend from the flow diverter through the particle collection space to separate out gas from the liquid of the input flow.

A separating device that is connectable to a vacuuming device for separating dirt particles from an air stream drawn in by the vacuuming device, containing at least one separator. The at least one separator contains an inlet opening for the air stream and a first and second outlet opening, wherein the first outlet opening serves for the exit of drawn-in dirt particles from the separator and the second outlet opening serves for the exit of the drawn-in air stream and of the drawn-in dirt particles from the separator, and wherein a first and second collection vessel for collecting the dirt particles separated from the separator is contained, and wherein the first collection vessel is positioned in a direction beneath the first outlet opening and the second collection vessel is positioned in a direction beneath the second outlet opening.

An in-line fitment for connection of a filter to a pipe includes first and second fluid-carrying portions and a non-fluid-carrying spacer. Each fluid-carrying portion includes a socket for receiving an open end of a pipe and a connector for connection of the filter. A screw compression fitting is provided on each of the sockets of the first and second fluid-carrying portions for forming a sealed connection with the open ends of the pipe. The socket of the first fluid-carrying portion has a pipe receiving depth greater than that of the socket of the second fluid-carrying portion for enabling movement of the fitment parallel to the pipe when engaged with one of the open ends of the pipe. The sockets of the first and second fluid-carrying portions are positioned on a common axis and facing away from each other when the fluid-carrying portions are linked by the spacer.
