Application of CFD Code PHOENICS for simulating CYCLONE SEPARATORS

  • 1. Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Mumbai (India)

Description

The work presents a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) calculation to investigate the flow field in a tangential inlet cyclone which is mainly used for the separation of the moisture from an air stream. Three-dimensional, steady state Eulerian simulations of the turbulent gas - droplet flow in a cyclone separator have been performed. Numerical simulation was carried out using CFD code PHOENICS for the given geometry of separators available in literature
