The turbomachine comprises a casing (), there being arranged in the casing an impeller () arranged on a driven shaft. The turbomachine has an inflow region () and an outflow region () and, in operation, is flowed through by a working medium. The working medium flows into the inflow region, along a front side () formed on the impeller and subsequently out of the outflow region, there being a pressure drop at the front side between the inflow region and the outflow region. A pressure divider () is arranged on the rear side of the impeller, opposite the front side.

The invention relates to a device and a method for separating dirt particles from the working medium of a turbine (). The turbine () comprises at least one rotor () which is arranged in a housing (). A swirl generator () is provided that sets the working medium and the dirt particles in a spiral-shaped rotational movement along a principal axis () by means of the geometry of the swirl generator () and thereby separates the dirt particles from the working medium. The swirl generator () is designed in such a way that the working medium experiences a reversal of the speed component parallel to the principal axis () within the swirl generator ().
