<p>A fluid separator for separating a mixture of at least two immiscible fluids having different specific gravities. A fluid intake conduit (11) is coupled to an enclosed separation chamber (10) for admitting the mixture of fluids to the chamber, and a first vertically disposed elongate column (12) extends into the chamber and opens adjacent the bottom thereof. A second column (16) extends vertically upwardly from the chamber at a distance (d) above the upper end of the first column (12) which is approximately equal to <CHEM> where H is the height of the first column between its vertically upper and lower ends, Sw represents the specific gravity of the immiscible fluid having the greater specific gravity, and Sc represents the specific gravity of the other fluid of the mixture. The chamber may also be divided into a plurality of individual separating sections to permit the simultaneous separation of a plurality of fluid mixtures.</p> |
