The influence of cyclone cone wall roughness on swirling flow characteristics is evaluated by considering different numbers of the inlet when the total flow rate is kept constant. Three-dimensional simulations are performed using the Eulerian–Lagrangian approach and RSM turbulence model. Effective p...
