Cyclone Separator with Particle Separation: Overview
Cyclone separators are used to remove particles from an air stream. Air enters the inlet at a velocity of 2 m/s along with heavy and light particles. You can see the geometry and conditions for the simulation in the figure below:
1. Inlet–Velocity = 2 m/s
2. Outlet–Specified Pressure Outlet = 0 Pa
Air density = 1.1614 kg/m3
Air viscosity = 1.846 e-05 Pa.s
Light Particles Density = 10 kg/m3
Light Particles Multicomponent Mixing using a Nozzle: OverviewRadius = 3e-6 m
Heavy Particles Density = 2000 kg/m3
Heavy Particles Radius = 0.0005 m
