Multicriteria optimisation of first-stage cyclones in the clinker burning system by means of numerical modelling and experimental research

摘要

Multiphase flow inside first-stage cyclones in the clinker burning system was analysed and described based on numerical and experimental research methods. The research was preceded by operation tests on two industrial installations. This allowed for the reproduction of real operation conditions and the construction of the research station. In total, 57 geometric configurations of cyclone separators were studied. Data collected from calculations of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and laboratory tests were compared in order to determine the reliability of the obtained results.
