Provided are: an oil separator with which oil-separation efficiency can be improved by reliably capturing oil once separated, and inhibiting the re-entrainment of the oil; and a compressor provided with the oil separator. This oil separator (1) is provided with a cylindrical separation cylinder (2), and is configured such that oil included in a gas flowing in from a gas inflow port (5) provided along an inner circumferential surface (4) of the separation cylinder (2) in a tangential direction is centrifugally separated, and the separated oil is discharged from one end side of the separation cylinder (2), while the gas is discharged from another end side of the separation cylinder (2). The oil separator (1) has, provided to the inner circumferential surface (4) of the separation cylinder (2) therein, an opening (9) which communicates with the gas inflow port (5), and a plurality of oil-capturing openings (10) which protrude toward and are open at an inner circumferential side. Furthermore, in the oil separator (1), a cylindrical body (8) is fitted which has, provided to an outer circumferential surface side thereof, a plurality of oil passages (11) which communicate with the oil-capturing openings (10). |
