Study of Operating Parameters' Impact on Separation Performance of Cyclone Separator

摘要

The numerical simulation can be obtained by taking advantage of turbulence model of Fluent to study the gas-solid flow field of cyclone separator. The pressure of the cyclone drops increases with the enhancement of the inlet flow velocity, and the increase amplitude can become larger and larger. The separation efficiency of the cyclone enhances gradually as the increase of the flow. The increase amplitude of small and secondary particles is much lager compared with the increase amplitude of big ones. The overall separation efficiency can strengthen gradually with increasing of particles concentration as well as the each part's efficiency. But the separation efficiency will stay in stable level when the concentration reaches a certain value with the big particles in the low concentration and small ones in a relatively high concentration.
