Description

A cyclone separator holds significant importance as the primary gas–solid separation apparatus in the industrial sector. Cyclone separators operate based on a fundamental principle, primarily harnessing the centrifugal force produced by the rotation of air in order to segregate solid particles from the gas stream and then collect them. In addition to the main vortex in the flow field, there are a number of secondary flows, which significantly impact the aggregation of fine particles and contribute to the heightened energy consumption.
