Fluid properties impact on energy separation in Ranque–Hilsch vortex tube

Abstract This paper examines the energy separation in vortex tubes which is a passive device that can split a pressurized room temperature gas stream to hot and cold streams. The paper employs numerical simulations to investigate the impact of various working fluids such as helium, air, oxygen, nitr...
