Abstract

Representing a disperse phase as a continuous medium of particles, we consider their concentration in the turbulent flow of an aerosol in a cyclone apparatus. In this work we use the known results of the aerodynamic studies of flows in cyclone apparatuses. Analytical equations, which do not require the use of experimental coefficients on the separation of particles, are derived for the efficiency of the concentration of particles in a cyclone apparatus.
