Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and apparatus for separating particles from an inlet airflow of a turbine engine.SOLUTION: The apparatus has a centerbody 92 with a radially outer scavenge conduit. The inlet airflow has an entrained particulate matter, which can impact an impact surface defining a part of the centerbody 92. The impact surface can be disposed at an angle or have a low coefficient of restitution to reduce the velocity of the incoming particulate matter. The particulate matter is radially diverted radially outward through the scavenge conduit, unable to make a turn defined by the shape of the centerbody 92.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 【課題】タービンエンジンの入口空気流から粒子を分離するための方法および装置を提供する。【解決手段】半径方向外側排気管路をもつ中心胴体92を有す。入口空気流は、中心胴体92の一部を規定する衝突表面に衝突し得る、同伴されている粒状物質を有す。衝突表面は、傾斜させて配置されるか、または低い反発係数を有して、流入する粒状物質の速度を低減し得る。粒状物質は、排気管路を通って半径方向外側に放射状にそらされ、中心胴体92の形状によって規定されるターンをなすことができない。【選択図】図2
