- Abstract
The natural vortex length is a complex turbulent dynamic phenomenon of cyclone separator, which can provide reference for the height design. It is calculated by the axial distance between the vortex end and the bottom of vortex finder. At present, scholars mainly attribute the influencing factors of natural vortex length to cylinder diameter, inlet area and vortex finder diameter, ignoring the influence of other structural parameters and operating parameters, so the accuracy and applicability of empirical formula are poor. This study described the mechanism of the vortex end and analyzed the PVC phenomenon. Then, an example was provided to illustrate the limitations and shortcomings of empirical formula. In addition, the influences of some geometric parameters and operating parameters on natural vortex length were summarized. Therefore, this work could provide an important reference for design optimization of cyclone separator height.
