The present invention provides an air-oil separator comprising a first region having a mixture of air and oil, a second region wherein separation of at least some of the oil from the air-oil mixture occurs and at least one multi-directional injector plug located on a rotating component in flow communication with the first region and the second region, the multi-directional injector plug having a discharge head that is oriented such that at least a part of the air-oil mixture discharged therefrom has a component of velocity that is tangential to the direction of rotation of the rotating component.

Air-oil separator

A rotating seal for a gas turbine engine includes: (a) an annular seal body; (b) a sealing component carried by the seal body which is adapted to form one-half of a rotating seal interface; and (c) an impeller carried by the seal body which comprises a plurality of radially-inwardly-extending impeller blades.

Dynamic impeller oil seal

The present invention provides a vortex generator that may be used in systems for separating oil from air oil mixtures. The vortex generator comprises a rotating disk having a rim having a plurality of passages extending through it and a cavity formed by the rotating disk and a cavity wall wherein a vortex is created when there is a flow through the plurality of passages into the cavity.
