Abstract: A rotary phase separator for a space environment includes a housing defining a separator chamber therein and a shaft located along a longitudinal axis of the rotary phase separator and inside the housing. Relative motion between the housing and the shaft about the longitudinal axis urging separation of gas and liquid from a two-phase liquid and gas fluid in the separator chamber. One or more magnetic bearing assemblies are supportive of the shaft relative to the housing.

Abstract: A component assembly for a space environment includes a main body, and a plurality of main body openings in the main body. Each main body opening has an identical cross-sectional shape. A plurality of inserts are installed to the main body at respective main body openings of the plurality of main body openings. Each insert of the plurality of inserts defines a fluid port for a fluid flow to flow into the main body or out of the main body via the respective main body openings. At least two fluid ports have a different cross-sectional configuration.
