Abstract
A cyclonic fluid separator has a tubular housing () in which the fluid is accelerated and swirl imparting means () for inducing the fluid to swirl through an annular space between the housing and a central body () mounted within the housing (), which central body () is provided with resonance abatement means, such as: tensioning means () which apply a tension load to an elongate tail section () of the central body () such that the natural frequency of the central body () is increased; vibration dampening means (), which inhibit vibration of at least part () of the central body (); solid particles () arranged in a segmented tubular tail section () of the central body (), a viscous liquid () arranged between a tubular tail section () of the central body () and a tensioning rod (), apertures () drilled radially through a tail section () of the central body (); and/or a low pressure fluid () injected through a central opening () in the central body ().
