Problems solved by technology

However, forming the spacers as spherical segments has the disadvantage that ceramic materials with very good wear and erosion resistance, such as densely sintered silicon carbide, are sensitive to point pressure loads, Failure due to cracking when overstressed
This technical solution has disadvantages of the following degree: on the one hand the assembly is complex, because the precise orientation of the ring must be ensured; torsion under the influence of
This results in a lower load-carrying capacity of the filter system in terms of internal and external pressure

Embodiment 1

[0197] Example 1: Calculation of the height of the compensating bush

[0198] will be based on the basis of the present invention Figure 3a-Figure 3b The separating device is inserted into the borehole. At the location where the separation device is inserted, a temperature of 150° C. prevails. Steel L80 was used as material for the base pipe. Sintered silicon carbide (SSiC; 3M TM Type F silicon carbide, ESK Ceramics) was used as the material for the annular stack. In order to compensate for the different thermal expansions of the base pipe and the annular stack, compensating bushings of PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) are used at one or both ends of the annular stack. The PTFE compensating bushing has the effect of preventing a gap larger than the required filter width from forming between the annular disks at higher temperatures where it is inserted.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a novel separation device for high differential pressures, with which undesired solid particles can be separated from a volume flow of oil, gas and water or mixtures thereof. Background technique [0002] Such separation devices are required in many oil and gas extraction wells. Mineral oil and natural gas are stored in naturally occurring underground reservoirs, where the oil or gas is distributed in more or less porous and permeable mineral layers. The purpose of each oil or gas borehole is to reach the reservoir and produce it in such a way that as far as possible only marketable products such as oil and gas are extracted, while undesired by-products are minimized or even completely avoided. Undesirable by-products in oil and gas extraction include solid particles such as sand and other mineral particles that are carried up the borehole from the reservoir by liquid or gas streams. Depending on the permeability of the geolo...
