Abstract: A particle separator associated with a compressor section of a gas turbine engine includes a duct that defines a fluid flow path from a diffuser to a deswirl section. The duct includes a curved portion between an outlet of the diffuser and an inlet of the deswirl section. The curved portion is configured to have at least one low velocity region and a high velocity region. The particle separator includes at least one cluster of inlet passages defined at the at least one low velocity region. The particle separator includes a scavenge plenum coupled to the duct and in fluid communication with the at least one cluster of inlet passages. At least one outlet slot is defined through the duct downstream of the at least one cluster of inlet passages in the high velocity region and is in fluid communication with the scavenge plenum.

Abstract: A method for scavenging small particles from a turbine engine includes directing compressed air through a flowpath, downstream of a compressor, which causes a reduction in a radial flow component and the introduction of or an increase in an axial flow component of the compressed air, removing a portion of the compressed air from the flowpath and directing the portion into a scavenge plenum, the scavenge plenum being positioned adjacent to and radially outward from the flow path, and returning the portion of the compressed air from the plenum to the flowpath while maintaining a majority of the small particles that were present in the portion within the scavenge plenum. Further, the method includes removing the majority of small particles from the plenum. The step of removing occurs intermittently during engine operation, during engine shutdown, or while the engine is not operation, but does not occur continuously during engine operation.

Abstract: A turbine engine incorporating a fine particle separation means includes a radial compressor that rotates about a longitudinal axis, a radially-oriented diffuser located downstream and radially outward, with respect to the longitudinal axis, from the radial compressor, and a flow path positioned downstream and radially outward, with respect to the longitudinal axis, from the diffuser, wherein the flow path comprises an outer annular wall and an inner annular wall between which the compressed air flows, and wherein the flow path comprises an arc the redirects the compressed air from flowing in a substantially radial flow direction to a substantially axial flow direction. The turbine engine further includes an extraction slot in the outer annular wall that fluidly connects with a scavenge plenum, the scavenge plenum being positioned adjacent to and radially outward from the outer annular wall at a position downstream axially along the flow path from the arc.
