  • Cylinder head oil separator for an internal combustion engine (flow-controlled oil separator)
    Patent number: 11111831
    Abstract: The invention relates to a cylinder head oil separator arranged in a cylinder head of an internal combustion engine. In order to reduce maintenance and simplify the oil separator, the cylinder head oil separator includes a flow channel which is constructed as a Tesla valve and which is designed such that the air-oil aerosol flows through a longer flow path in a first flow direction from the aerosol inlet at a first opening to the air outlet (separation direction) at a second opening. The air-oil aerosol flows through a shorter flow path in a ventilation direction opposite the separation direction from the inlet at the second opening to the outlet of a fluid at the first opening.
