Abstract | The short-circuit flow, which is discharged from the vortex finder without separation, seriously affects the processing efficiency of the hydrocyclone. In this paper, the experimental test and numerical simulation methods are used to study the effect of the vortex finder and feed parameters on the short-circuit flow and separation performance. The Reynolds Stress method (RSM), Volume of Fluid (VOF), and Mixture model were adopted to predict the separation process in the hydrocyclone. The simulation results are analyzed in terms of the short-circuit flow rate, the ratio of the short-circuit flow rate to the inlet flow rate (hereafter this paper will be abbreviated as "its ratio") and the separation efficiency. The results indicate that the smaller vortex finder diameter, thick-walled vortex finder, and moderate vortex finder length are conducive to inhibiting the short-circuit flow and decreasing the cut size (d(50)). A faster inlet velocity and higher feed concentration could increase the short-circuit flow but reduce its ratio. The relatively faster inlet velocity and lower feed concentration could decrease the d(50) and improve the separation efficiency. |
