Under a Small Grant for Exploratory Research, an investigation will be conducted of species separation in a binary mixture. The species are smoke and air. Unusually rapid separation of smoke particles was observed in preliminary experiments in a vortex flow designed to study vortex breakdown. The process was much too rapid to be due to centrifugal separation, and is not explainable with conventional mechanisms. A further systematic exploration of the phenomenon, together with numerical particle path simulations, is to be carried out. A new mechanism for rapid species separation would be highly useful in separations technology for a broad range of engineering systems.

在探索性研究的小额赠款下， 将在二元混合物中进行物种分离。 它们是烟和空气。异常快速的分离 烟雾颗粒在初步实验中观察到， 研究涡流破裂的涡流。过程 太快了，不可能是离心分离造成的， 无法用常规机制解释。另一 对这一现象的系统研究， 数值粒子路径模拟，将进行。 一种快速分离物种的新机制将是高度 可用于各种分离技术， 工程系统。
