- Abstract
Results of numerical modeling of airflow in cyclones are presented. Calculations were made with the aid of FloEFD software package version 11.3 using a modified k-ε turbulence model. Calculated hydraulic resistance and cyclone separation efficiency data are compared with experimental data obtained at various inlet air temperatures in a wide airflow rate range. It was found that the used mathematical model can provide acceptably accurate results. Recommendations are offered for successful application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method to obtain accurate and economical cyclone aerodynamics engineering calculation results.
