The aim of this paper is to design two improved baffles to solve the injection problem caused by traditional baffle in compact test separatorand use FLUENT software to study their effects on separator pressure loss and separation efficiency. The result shows: that anti-injection baffle can make compact test separator with a high separation efficiency with a relatively low pressure loss. Also, the diameter of anti-injection plate which makes the compact test separator at its highest separation efficiency is slightly smaller than that which makes the lowest pressure loss.
