Cyclone separators for separation of gas/solids flow systems . Cyclones are used for separation of particles of solids from gas flow. Although cyclones have been in industrial use for nearly a century, it is still impossible to completely calculate the flow processes involved. This contribution deals with the theory of the separation process with separation behaviour, limiting particle size, generation of twist, and pressure drop. The article describes optimization of the cyclone by aerodynamic calculations with the separation performance, energy requirement, and investment costs as parameters. The separation performance and the energy requirements of cyclones are largely determined by the mode of construction and the operating conditions. Cyclones used industrially are discussed.
