vortex tube design

(OP)
Does anyone know what parameter of a vortex tube determine its output air flow rate? In an application I'm designing, vortex tube is the best candidate but it's an area I have no expertise in.

Can anyone recommand to me an engineer that specializes in this area? Thanks

Inlet orifice size.

RE: vortex tube design

google vortex tubes.  There are many off the shelf units.  There is a company in Europe that custom makes units that are used to process natural gas at volumes up to 20,000,000 cubic feet per day.
