Abstract
A fluid control system includes a vortex separator, a fluid pump, an eductor, and an accumulator. The vortex separator has a fluid inlet arranged to receive a fluid, a first fluid outlet arranged output a first phase of the fluid, and a second fluid outlet arranged to output at least one of a non-condensable gas and a second phase of the fluid. The fluid pump has a pump outlet and a pump inlet that is fluidly connected to the first fluid outlet. The eductor has a first eductor inlet fluidly connected to the pump outlet, a second eductor inlet fluidly connected to the second fluid outlet, and an eductor outlet. The accumulator has an accumulator inlet fluidly connected to the eductor outlet and an accumulator outlet fluidly connected to the fluid inlet.
