Some results of investigation energy separation mechanism included in numerical model equations air spiral flow appearing Ranque-Hilsch vortex tube are presented the article. Standard k-ε turbulence had been used simulations. It was found that make possible to predict effect by using special semi empirical term conservation equation which accounts for heat conductivity effects.
