Performance Characteristics for the 1D2D, 2D2D, 1D3D and Barrel Cyclones
نویسندگان
چکیده
The results of performance testing of four different cyclone designs are included in this paper. The 1D3D, 2D2D, 1D2D and Barrel cyclone designs are cyclone designs typically used to abate particulate matter (PM) emitted by cotton gins. The PM used for testing included three types of cotton gin trash (with and without lint fiber) and fly ash. The performance tests were conducted at different total trash inlet loading rates and at different fine dust inlet loading rates based on the fine dust fractions associated with each trash. The results were used to define the performance characteristics of different cyclone designs. With these characteristics, cotton ginners can utilize different cyclone designs for different processing streams to minimize PM concentrations emitted.

متن کاملEffect of Air Density on Cyclone Performance and System Design
1D3D and 2D2D cyclones were tested at Amarillo, Texas, to evaluate the effect of air density on cyclone performance. Both airflow rate and cyclone inlet velocity change with the change in air density. Two sets of inlet design velocities determined by the different air densities were used for the tests: one set based on the actual airflow, and the other set based on standard airflow. Experimenta...
متن کاملPerformance Characterization of Gas-Solid Cyclone for Separation of Particle from Syngas Produced from Food Waste Gasifier Plant
A biofuel from any biodegradable formation process such as a food waste bio-digester plant is a mixture of several gases such as methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2), hydrogen sulfide (H2S), ammonia (NH3) and impurities like water and dust particles. The results are reported of a parametric study of the process of separation of methane, which is the most important gas in the mixture and usable a...
متن کامل1d2d, 1d3d, 2d2d Cyclone Fractional Efficiency Curves for Fine Dust
The prediction of emission concentrations from cyclone collectors is integral to the permitting of agricultural facilities including cotton gins. One method for predicting emission concentrations utilizes fractional efficiency curves. Fractional efficiency curves (FEC’s) were developed for 1D2D, 1D3D, and 2D2D cyclone designs. The procedure used to develop these new FEC’s incorporated log-norma...
متن کاملA Theoretical Approach for Predicting Number
A new theoretical method for computing travel distance, number of turns, and cyclone pressure drop has been developed and is presented in this article. The flow pattern and cyclone dimensions determine the travel distance in a cyclone. The effective number of turns was calculated based on the travel distance. Cyclone pressure drop is composed of five pressure loss components. The frictional pre...
