Abstract
The present work studied the effectiveness of secondary flow injection into a cyclone on the separation performance of sub-micron particles. The particle collection efficiency increased with the secondary flowrate when injected in the upper cylindrical section of the cyclone. It was found that high particle collection efficiency is attained when the injection location of the secondary flow is close to the upper plate at a high flow velocity. A new type of cyclone developed based on these results achieved a high collection efficiency, which was in qualitative agreement with the three-dimensional simulation results.
