Analysis of energy separation inside a Ranque-Hilsch vortex tube using RANS based CFD

The primary aim of this study was to investigate the role of turbulent structure in energy separation inside Vortex Tube. The important flow features were identified using RANS based CFD. The flow was divided into two parts above and below the cross-over region which is the radial location where the...
