PARTICLE SEPARATOR AND SEPARATING METHOD FOR GAS TURBINE ENGINE

摘要

A system and method for particle separation in a gas turbine engine centrifugal impeller bleed air system using a tangential velocity component of the compressor bleed air to centrifuge the particles radially outwardly and convey the particles circumferentially, away from a clean air outlet and towards a particle outlet where the particles are extracted from the bleed air.
