Abstract
In one of the proposals for a cut-off classifier, an injection port is mounted at the collecting mouth, and sand (relatively large particles) and muddy deposits (relatively small particles) which are deposited under a body of water are fluidized before the particles are collected. Thus only the small particles are lifted, and their transport can be made more effective and smooth by controlling the velocity at the entrance of the suction unit. The maximum diameter of the particles lifted is determined only by the suction velocity of water. It was clarified from the results of flow visualization in the vicinity of the collection region that good separations are achieved for several combinations of spherical glass beads. By analyzing the image of the visualized region, the effects of the injection on the cleaned volume and the effect of small bead diameter on the collection time could be discussed quantitatively.
