Cyclone Separator
This example shows the trajectories of solid particles with different diameters in a Stairmand high efficiency cyclone separator. The model accurately predicts the fate of solid particles and the cyclone separation efficiency.

Cyclone ModellingCyclone separators represent one of the most commonly used industrial devices to remove solid particles from a gas flow. The model includes the effects of heat and momentum transfer between the gas and solid particles. The performance of the cyclone was determined by calculating the separation efficiency for each particle size as shown in the graph above. |
PerformanceModeling cyclone separators with CFD allows the performance to be quantified for a range of operating conditions and enabling evaluation of:
