ABSTRACT:
A high efficiency small diameter hydrocyclone for separating liquid/liquid constituents of a mixture. An effective separation portion L.sub.e of the hydrocyclone separation chamber begins at a small diameter throat D.sub.T where acceleration and velocity of the mixture cease to increase. This effective portion L.sub.e ends at the underflow outlet from the separation chamber, and has an area to volume ratio that falls within certain limits to thereby promote efficient separation of the mixture, particularly small diameter droplets dispersed therein.
