Particle separator for a gas turbine engine

A particle separator for separating particles and/or materials entrained in a flow of air is disclosed. The particle separator includes an annular inlet defined by an outer shroud and an inner shroud. An upper forward flow divider and a lower forward flow divider is disposed within the annular inlet. A first and second radially spaced annular flow divider is adapted for directing said flow of air into at least a first, second, third and fourth flow passageway. At least four curved flow splitters are utilized for separating particles and/or materials entrained in the flow of air as it passes through the first, second, third and fourth flow passageways.
