In this article, the development of the energy separation for the vortex tube has been briefly
reviewed. This review mainly focuses on three aspects, they are the energy separation …

Ranque–Hilsch vortex tube is a simple devise with no moving parts which could generate
cold and hot air/gas streams simultaneously with compressed air/gas as a working fluid. The …

The thermal separation inside a vortex tube can be influenced using different shapes of
throttle valves. Experimental and numerical tests are performed on the thermal …

Abstract The Ranque–Hilsch vortex tube is a simple device with no moving parts and no
mechanical operations. This device separates the inlet air into two distinctive regions; an …

The geometric structure of the hot end tube affects the energy separation of the vortex tube
greatly. The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) technique is used to study the difference of …

The present study investigates the effects of the orifice nozzle number and the inlet pressure
experimentally on the cooling performance of the counter flow type vortex tube. The energy …

The method of entropy generation analysis has been implemented with the aim to
investigate a double-circuit vortex tube thermodynamics. The value of the enthalpy growth …

A vortex tube is a simple device with an interesting role and different industrial applications,
and it contains one or more tangential inlets and two outlets. It has been most commonly …

In this paper, a cylindrical swirl chamber, which can be used on the leading edge of a
turbine blade is numerically modeled to investigate the effects of multiple slots at each …

The present paper reports a numerical investigation of a double-circuit Ranque–Hilsch
vortex tube. Different turbulence models, namely k–ε, k–ε RNG, SAS-SST, RSM-LRR and …
