<p>A separator 122 for separating gas and liquid in a coolant, the separator comprises a hollow body 124 having a first end 302 and a second end 304. An inlet 126 is arranged towards the first end and a liquid outlet 130 arranged towards the second end. The separator includes a gas outlet 128 and a conduit 402 mounted in the hollow body and defining a gas flow path at least partway between the first end and the second end. In use a coolant such as distilled water or mixtures of water, antifreeze and additives may enter the inlet and adopt cyclonic flow from the first end to the second end and any gas such as air present in the fluid is separated and may enter the conduit before exiting the separator via the gas outlet. The gas free liquid may exit the separator via the liquid outlet. The separator may be included in a cooling system for an engine such as diesel or gasoline fuelled engines.</p> |
