A gas-particle cyclone separator is an economical device for removing particulate solids
from a gas system, which is widely utilized in industrial applications. This review mainly …

The influence of inlet cross-sectional shape on the flow pattern, pressure drop, and cut-off
diameter of a gas cyclone was studied using the CFD model. Accordingly, five different inlet …

Abstract Design, scale-up and operation of cyclone gas–solid separators are mostly based
on simplified models and experience. Previous single-phase or one-way coupled …

It has been shown that tangential inlet return cyclones are commonly used for inlet air
filtration of off-road vehicle engines. The wear of the engine elements, and thus their …

The square cyclone separator is an efficient separation device for high-temperature gas
within Circulating Fluidized Bed (CFB) boilers. Additionally, other operating factors such as …

In this study, the influence of a novel converging-diverging (CD) vortex finder on the
performance of a gas cyclone was studied using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) …

This study aimed to investigate the separation performance of a cyclone separator after
reshaping its cylindrical body by installing the helical triangular fins. A numerical simulation …

Short-circuiting flow is an important secondary flow in gas cyclones, which has a negative
impact on the separation performance. To improve the understanding of the short-circuiting …

This article studied the effect of the inlet velocity and various geometric dimensions on the
flow pattern, collection efficiency, pressure drop, and acoustic noise of axial cyclones using …

The present study aims at enhancing the cyclone performance by optimizing its geometry
while keeping the total height constant. We consider three different cases of optimization …
