T he centrifugal separator has an upper fluidinlet, an upper gasoutlet, and the bottom is a fluidoutlet. In this separator, a rotary drum mounted to a rotating shaft is driven by a motor. T hrough CFD simulation, the turbulent two phase flow in the separator is studied, and the complex phenomenon of layer, separation, and swirl is especially discussed. T he simulation result shows that a forced vortex is formed during rotary drum rotating, and gasliquid twophase with different density is separated under centrifu gal function. Furthermore, the separation efficiency of the produced experimental separator is tested, and it indicates that the centrifugal gasliquid separator performs steadily and efficiently, thus the validity of CFD is verified. In addition, on the basis of analyzing inner flow field, simu lation optimization of
