Abstract
Numerical simulation is used to study the dynamics of non-Newtonian free-surface flow in a cylindrical-conical hydrocyclone. For different angles of taper of the conical section of the hydrocyclone, the pressure and velocity distributions are calculated, together with the dependence of the fluid film thickness on the axial coordinate. The effect of the rheological properties of the fluid and the controlling similarity parameters on the flow dynamics is studied.
