DISTRIBUTIONS OF THE TANGENTIAL VELOCITIES ON THE DUST LADEN GAS FLOW IN THE CYLINDRICAL CYCLONE DUST COLLECTOR

Abstract

ABSTRACT The authors measured the distributions of the tangential velocities of the feed dust concentration Co = 0. 6 ~15. 0 g/ m3 by the hot wire anemometers. The test dust was fly-ash which had the mean diameter Xpn = 2.03 μm. The used cylindrical cyclone had the diameter D1 = 140 mm, the diameter of the exit pipe D2 = 50 mn and the total length HT = 382 mm. In order to measure the fluctuating velocities and the time mean velocity on the dust Iaden gas flow and on the pure air flow, we had applied two kinds of the hot-wires. The flow Reynolds number Rec was Rec = Qo/HiV = 797~5582. The expert mental results sho-ed that there were no distinct differences of the time mean and fl uctuating velocities between the pure air flow and the dust laden gas flow. Then the authors have tried to explain those expert mental results by the response time of the fine solid particles and that of the scale of the nixing length in the turbulent rotational air flow.
