<p>There is disclosed in the present invention a hydrocyclone type separator having small dimensions and possessing high capacity for fluid processing by virtue of structural characteristics introduced into the feed, into the upper outlet orifice (overflow) and into the lower outlet orifice (underflow). The feed presents a configuration comprising two equal channels (18), diametrically opposed and curved, wherein the transverse cross sectional area gradually diminishes serving to accelerate the two phase fluid stream in a moderate manner. The possibility of the connection of interchangeable parts (2, 6) to the upper outlet orifice (13) permits changing the diameter of said outlet orifice and, in this manner, altering the hydrodynamic characteristics of the equipment and increasing the capacity of the same equipment to achieve operational bands suitable for fluid flows having high oil content, medium oil content and low oil content. The presence of a continuously adjustable valve (7) in the area of the lower outlet permits increasing the operational band of the hydrocyclone, even under conditions of high pressure loss and counter pressure in the upper outlet, where there would be a tendency to reflux at said outlet.</p> |
