So far, the effect of the dust outlet geometry on the separation process in gas cyclones has rarely been investigated. In this work, extensive tests have shown that by changing the dust outlet geometry separation efficiency can be improved significantly due to a change of the flow pattern in the lower part of the cyclone.
