How is the rotational pressure drop in a settler calculated? What factors affect the magnitude of the pressure drop?
Calculation of the inlet linear velocity of cyclone separators http://bbs.hcbbs.cc/thread-591105-1-1.html (Source: Haichuan Chemical Industry Forum)
1. The pressure drop in a cyclone separator is related to various factors, such as inlet flow velocity, volumetric flow rate, diameter of the exhaust pipe, particle distribution, fluid viscosity, ratios between different cross-sections, surface roughness of the flow channels, depth of insertion of the exhaust pipe, and the shape of the volute in the separation section. 2. As long as the structure of the cyclone separator remains intact and not defective, the operating pressure drop is primarily influenced by factors such as inlet flow velocity, inlet particle concentration, fluid viscosity, and particle distribution
