Especially the axial flow cyclone is the mostsimple construction and it keeps high reliability for maintenance. On the other hand, the collectionefficiency of the cyclone depends not only on the inlet gas velocity but also on the feed particle concentration. The collection efficiency increases with increasing feed particle concentration. However untilnow the problem of how to estimate the collection efficiency depended on the feed particle concentrationis remained except the investigation by Muschelknautz & Brunner~[6]. Therefore in this paper one ofthe estimate method for the collection efficiency of the axial flow cyclones is proposed. The applicationto the geometrically similar type of cyclone of the body diameters D_1=30, 50, 69 and 99 mm showedin good agreement with the experimental results of the collection efficiencies which were described indetail in the paper by Ogawa & Sugiyama~[8].展开更多

In order to apply these similarity laws for the prediction of the characteristics of the collection efficiency, ηc, geometrically similar types of uni-flow cyclones were used. The body diameters of the cyclones were D_1=30, 50, 69 and 99 mm, respectively. The feed particle concentration of the fly-ash particles was up to C_o = 60g/m^3. From the experimental results: (1) the pressure drop, △pc, in the cyclones was a function of not only the Reynods number, Re_c, but also the body diameter, D_1; (2) the collection efficiency, η_c, did not always increase with decreasing body diameter but there existed an optimal body size; (3) application of the mechanical similarity laws to the collection efficiency was not always sufficient for estimating the collection efficiency, since the feed particle concentration was an additional important factor; (4) a new parameter which was the ratio, E_(pf), of the apparent separation energy, W_p, of the solid particles to the energy loss, E_c, of the gas flow in the cyclone was introduced for discussing the collection efficiency; (5) Fuchs theory, used to estimate the collection efficiency, was examined. Fuchs theory may be applied for high feed particle concentration.展开更多
