Abstract
A particle separator associated with a compressor section of a gas turbine engine includes a duct that defines a fluid flow path from a diffuser to a deswirl section. The duct includes a curved portion between an outlet of the diffuser and an inlet of the deswirl section. The curved portion is configured to have at least one low velocity region and a high velocity region. The particle separator includes at least one cluster of inlet passages defined at the at least one low velocity region. The particle separator includes a scavenge plenum coupled to the duct and in fluid communication with the at least one cluster of inlet passages. At least one outlet slot is defined through the duct downstream of the at least one cluster of inlet passages in the high velocity region and is in fluid communication with the scavenge plenum.
