Abstract

ABSTRACT An attempt has been made to develop a non-intrusive and robust technique for online process monitoring of hydrocyclones using commercially available vibration sensors. Vibration signals were captured first at the spigots of 50.8 mm and 76.2 mm diameter hydrocyclones while using water only at different operating conditions. For denoising the captured raw vibration signals, a wavelet-based method coupled with median filtering-based technique was used. The Root Mean Square (RMS) values of vibration accelerations induced in the hydrocyclone were found to be proportional to the total volumetric feed rate. Based on this observation, it has been demonstrated how suitable empirical correlations can be developed which can ultimately be used as an online process monitoring tool for hydrocyclones.
