Gambit software was used for 3D modeling and mesh generation, and Cooper method was used to generate structural mesh. As shown in Fig. 2, the cone angles were changed at given total length of the hydrocyclone (θ = 10°-28°) or the length of cylindrical section (θ = 3°-24°). The diameter of the underflow port remained unchanged, …

Abstract. In the computational fluid dynamics study of hydrocyclones, the air-core dimension is key to predicting the mass split between the underflow and overflow. In turn, the mass split influences the prediction of the size classification curve. Three models, the renormalization group κ – ε model, the Reynolds stress model, and the large ...

A study of the fluid dynamic behaviour of filtering hydrocyclones
The hydrocyclone can effectively separate particles larger than 10μm, but the efficiency is greatly reduced when the particle size is less than 10μm. This research work therefore aimed to improve the efficiency of separating small oil droplets (particle size of 0-20μm) in liquid-liquid hydrocyclone.
