Opinions Regarding the Assessment of Pressure Drop in Tangential Feed Cyclones for Cleaning Industrial Dry Gases

Cyclones are used to remove solid particles larger than 5 µm from impure industrial gases. They are simple constructions, without moving parts and easy to maintain. In the use of such equipment, main interest is to evaluate the pressure drop in the cyclone and the efficiency of separation. Ensuring...

Summary:Cyclones are used to remove solid particles larger than 5 µm from impure industrial gases. They are simple constructions, without moving parts and easy to maintain. In the use of such equipment, main interest is to evaluate the pressure drop in the cyclone and the efficiency of separation. Ensuring a high value of the pressure drop involves high energy consumption, aiming to increase the separation efficiency. Many studies, exposed in the content of this work, have been carried out, in the sense of the above topic, for pressure loss assessment. The results of the empirical formulas, proposed over time, were compared, in the specialized literature, with those offered by the experimental results, obviously for practical cases of great interest.
