Abstract

Results are given of calculations of flow within the two-dimensional Euler model of supersonic swirling flow of gas in a supersonic separator of natural gas. The formulation of the problem is given, numerical experiment is performed, and the basic parameters of gas flow (velocity components, pressure, and so on) are obtained as functions of radius. The process of relaxation of flow to steady state with the formation of shock wave is considered, and the shock wave structure is determined. The behavior of gasdynamic parameters is analyzed under conditions of separation in the region of shock wave and behind it.
