Abstract: A separator for separating a multi-phase flow comprises: a first chamber at an upstream end of the separator, the first chamber comprising an inlet for an inlet flow to enter the first chamber; a second chamber at a downstream end of the separator, the second chamber comprising an outlet for a separated gas flow to exit the second chamber; and a mesh located between the first chamber and the second chamber for separating phases of the multi-phase flow, wherein the mesh is configured to receive the multi-phase flow from the first chamber at an upstream face of the mesh, and is configured to allow the separated gas flow to flow into the second chamber from a downstream face of the mesh.
Abstract: The invention is separator for separating a fluid flow of gas with droplets (G, L), comprising an inlet (10) for the gas to be separated to a rotor (4) with a mesh (5) for coalescing the droplets (L) and releasing coalesced liquid (L?) from a peripheral part (50) of the rotor (4). Novel features of the separator is that—the mesh (5) generally forms an axial passage for said gas (G) from the inlet (10), through said rotor (4), to an outlet (20) for liquid depleted gas (G?), and—the rotor (4) with the mesh (5) is arranged for transporting the coalesced liquid (L?) laterally out of the axial passage to a wall (6) arranged for receiving the coalesced liquid (L?).
