[0026] The thickness of the top flow port circular tube 101, the top head shell 102, the cylindrical swirl shell 103, the conical swirl shell 104 and the bottom flow port circular tube 105 are all 8 cm to 20 cm.
[0027] The diameter of the single-cut inlet pipe 106 is determined by the gas-liquid two-phase flow rate, and the gas-liquid two-phase flow velocity in the single-cut inlet pipe 106 is controlled at 12m / s to 20m / s; the upper side of the single-cut inlet pipe 106 is tangent to the upper part of the cylindrical cyclone shell 103, the outer side of the single-cut inlet pipe 106 is tangent to the outer side of the cylindrical cyclone shell 103, and the axial direction of the single-cut inlet pipe 106 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the cylindrical cyclone shell 103;
[0028] An annular head 2 is provided inside the shell assembly 1, and the outer diameter of the annular head 2 is the same as the diameter of the cylindrical cyclone shell 103; the inner diameter of the annular head 2 is 0.5 times the outer diameter of the annular head 2; the inner diameter of the annular head 2 is the same as the diameter of the cavity isolation tube 3, and the length of the cavity isolation tube 3 is 1.3 times the length of the cylindrical cyclone shell 103;
[0029] A cylindrical cavity isolation tube 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom inner diameter end of the annular head 2, and a spiral guide vane 4 is welded to the outer surface of the cavity isolation tube 3. The guide vane 4 surrounds the cavity isolation tube 3 1.5 times, and the top end of the guide vane 4 is connected to the annular head 2. The guide vane 4 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the shell assembly 1 to form a sealed guide cavity.
[0030] A cylindrical drainage rod 5 is passed through the center of the annular head 2. The drainage rod 5 is three times the length of the cylindrical vortex shell 103. The upper part of the drainage rod 5 is parallel to the annular head 2. One end of the drainage rod 5 is fixedly connected to a top drainage cone 6.
