Abstract

A cyclone separator having a separating chamber formed with a primary portion (1) having a side inlet (5) and an axial end outlet (48), a secondary portion (2) and a tertiary portion (3), which portion (3) is curved over part of its length, and wherein 10 </= 2R/d2 </= 30 where (R) is the radius of curvature of the curved portion and (d2) is the diameter of the separating chamber at the downstream end of the primary portion (1).
