Figure shows 17-Hz images of a pressure-driven ethanol jet producing 2.6-mm droplets at an average velocity of 22 cm/s from a 20-gauge needle injected into a 4.0 mm inner diameter, 63-mm-long glass U-tube.

(a) Schematic of the passive phase separator (PPS). Separation of liquid–gas streams in microgravity is achieved utilizing centrifugal forces to promote droplet collisions onto surfaces. Liquid is then wicked into and driven along the interior corners. (b) Aluminum vanes coated with carbon black nanoparticles for insertion into PPS (refer Figure 5).

(a) Solid model exploded view of PPS. Gray components are aluminum, yellow capillary vanes are carbon black-coated aluminum, and the red helical core is 3D printed PLA. (b) Solid model of the assembled PPS rotated 90°, with sketch of the flow path. The letters (l) and (a) denote liquid and air, respectively.
