Results of Vortex Tube Usage in Diesel Exhaust Gas Recirculation System

The article outlines the results of vortex tube usage in exhaust gas recirculation system of diesel 4ЧН13/15. It presents main functional features of a vortex tube. It is shown that the usage of the tube allows reducing the temperature of recirculated gas up to 60 °C and significantly diminishes the content of nitrogen oxide and particulate matter in exhaust gases of an engine at general operation modes, conforming to the Rule of Economic Commission for Europe Organization of United Nations #96.
