# Industrial Specification: Separation Bowl

## 1. Technical Definition
The rotating component in an industrial oil degumming centrifuge where centrifugal force separates phospholipids and other impurities from crude vegetable oils.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **6000-12000 rpm at 85-95°C with feed viscosity 50-150 mPa·s**. Failure boundary: **Material yield strength exceeded at 13500 rpm or 250°C thermal limit**, Mechanism: **Centrifugal stress exceeding 316L stainless steel yield strength (290 MPa) or thermal expansion mismatch causing bowl distortion**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **L10 Bearing Life & Fatigue Model**:

> **Primary Equation**: $L_{10} = (\frac{C}{P})^p$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Predicts mechanical lifecycle before component fatigue.

- **Caution**: 

### Q: What materials are used in manufacturing separation bowls for oil degumming centrifuges?
**A**: Our separation bowls are manufactured from high-grade materials including Stainless Steel (316L) and Duplex Stainless Steel, offering excellent corrosion resistance and durability for harsh industrial oil processing environments.

### Q: What are the main components of a separation bowl assembly?
**A**: A complete separation bowl assembly typically includes the Bowl Body/Shell, Disc Stack, Distributor, and Top/Lid. These components work together to create the centrifugal force needed for efficient separation of impurities from crude vegetable oils.

### Q: How does a separation bowl improve oil degumming efficiency?
**A**: The separation bowl's rotating design generates powerful centrifugal force that effectively separates phospholipids and other solid impurities from crude vegetable oils, resulting in higher purity oil with improved clarity and reduced processing time compared to traditional methods.
