“…However, the removal of dissolved gas of low density from multiphase mixtures has been seldom explored. We developed a vacuum centrifugal solid-liquid-gas purifier, as shown in Figure 1 [11]. Under centrifugal force and negative pressure, free water and solid particulates can be extracted, and even dissolved gas in contaminated lubricant oil can also be removed.…”

Fluid property sensor (FPS) based on tuning-fork technology is applied to the measurement of the contaminant level of lubricant oil. The measuring principle of FPS sensor is derived and proved together with its resolution. The performance characteristics of the FPS sensor, such as sensitivity coefficient, resolution, and quality factor, are analyzed. A temperature compensation method is proposed to eliminate the temperature-dependence of the measuring parameters, and its validity is investigated by numerical simulation of sensitivity, oscillating frequency, and dielectric constant. The values of purification efficiency obtained using microwave and without microwave are compared experimentally.

“…The purifier is composed of the following parts: hull (1), foundation (2), disk (3), axis (4), oil tanker (5), central tube (6), inlet of contaminant (7), exit of clean oil (8), exit of bubble (9), vacuum zone (10), centrifugal purifier (11), and electromotor (12). A vacuum zone is formed when the hull spins at a great velocity.…”
