Dust Cyclone

This document provides calculations for a dedusting cyclone system with 1 cyclone operating at standard parameters. It lists the inlet gas flow, temperature, and dust load for the operating and design cases. For the operating case, it calculates that the cyclone will have a diameter of 5000mm, inlet velocity of 14.3 m/s, and pressure loss of 85mmwg. The outlet dust concentration is estimated to be 48.16 gm/m3 with a cyclone efficiency of 93%.

STANDARD PARAMETERS:
Pressure drop coeff., k =
Height of inlet/Dcyc. H/D =
Width of inlet/Dcyc., W/D =
Dust density factor, C =
dP = k*0.5*(rho-gas+rho-dust*c)*(v-inlet)^2,
Where the inlet velocity is calculated upon the inlet
area, which is calculated as (H-2*t)*(W-2*t)
NB if thickness of inlet lining is smaller than
in the cyclone then use the thickness in the inlet
