An inertial particle separator is one method of reducing the amount of sand and dust ingested by gas turbine engines. This is important because sand and dust often limit the useful life of engines operating in austere environments. To further improve the efficiency of inertial particle separator systems, an in-depth study of the multiphase flow dynamics has been undertaken. An experimental method was chosen to fill the void of available data and provide useful information for model validation. Using a facility at the University of Virginia, experiments have been conducted using three different inertial particle separator geometries. Surface flow visualization of each geometry is conducted using an oil-streak method to identify key flow structures. Separation efficiencies were calculated for an A4 coarse Arizona test dust (International Organization for Standardization 12103-1) over a range of operating conditions for each geometry.
