Abstract

The article considers the possibility of efficient energy and environmental use of vortex devices for the granulation of solids. The factors influencing the energy consumption for generating a vortex flow with dispersed solid inclusions are analysed. A mathematical model for calculating the aerodynamic drag of a vortex apparatus in a clean gas flow, which was used in computer modelling, is presented. The main dependencies for determining the influence of the geometric dimensions of the vortex on its aerodynamic drag are also given. An analytical solution to the problem of minimising the aerodynamic drag of a vortex apparatus during the movement of a dispersed medium is considered. The forces acting on the particles in the cyclone chamber during interaction with the gas are analysed. In this paper, a general method for calculating the parameters of cyclone-vortex devices for dispersed media using the basic equations of hydrodynamics and gas dynamics is developed. The solution approach used in this paper can be extended to other vortex devices not considered in this work.
