Zusammenfassung:A diffuser for a jet pump of a separator comprises an inlet defining a first flow area; an outlet in fluid communication with the inlet through which fluid exits the diffuser, in which a flow path extends from the inlet to the outlet, and in which the outlet defines a second flow area greater than the first flow area so that a velocity of fluid flowing through the inlet is greater than a velocity of fluid flowing through the outlet; and a communication port extending through a wall of the diffuser with an inlet in communication with an interior of the diffuser and an outlet in communication with an exterior of the diffuser, in which the communication port inlet is between the diffuser inlet and the diffuser outlet, so that contaminants separated from the fluid stream are removed through the communication port.
