An inlet air cleaner and mist eliminator assembly is provided for the air intake of gas turbine engines or other air breathing devices comprising, in combination, in flow sequence, a first array (10) of vortex air cleaners (69) removing coarse and heavy liquid droplets and solid contaminant particles, but not light and well dispersed liquid and solid contaminant particles; a second array (50) of sheets of filamentary woven or nonwoven material, arranged to receive partially cleaned air from the vortex air cleaner array, and remove and coalesce light and well dispersed liquid contaminant droplets and particles suspended therein, and a third array (60) of vortex air cleaners (69), arranged at the same or preferably a higher density and flow-through capacity per unit of inlet open surface area than the first array (10) to receive residual cleaned air from the second array, and removing additional light and well-dispersed coalesced liquid droplets and solid contaminant particles. |
