2. Vapor–liquid separator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor–liquid_separator

   Vertical separators are generally used when the gas-liquid ratio is high or gas volumes are high. Horizontal separators are used where large volumes of liquid are involved. [5] A vapor-liquid separator may operate as a 3-phase separator, with two immiscible liquid phases of different densities. For example natural gas (vapor), water and oil ...

4. Flow splitter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_splitter

   A flow splitter, in hydraulic engineering, is any device designed to break up the flow of water or nappe over a dam wall or weir.Flow splitters are used to reduce the likelihood of nappe vibration that might cause the failure of a dam wall by aerating the water flow.

5. Separator (oil production) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separator_(oil_production)

   A spreader plate that disperses the oil into small streams or rivulets increases the effectiveness of the heated-water bath. Upward flow of the oil through the water bath affords slight agitation, which is helpful in coalescing and separating entrained gas from the oil. A heated-water bath is probably the most effective method of removing foam ...

6. Low-flow fixtures - Wikipedia
