Calculation of Economically Optimal Value of Gas Velocity in a Cyclone

  • ECONOMICS
  • Published:
Chemical and Petroleum Engineering Aims and scope

Analytical dependencies for calculating the economically optimal value of the conditional gas velocity in a cyclone are identified taking into account both technical and economic parameters that affect the gas cleaning cost. A method for determining the optimal cyclone diameter and the number of cyclones corresponding to the minimum cost of gas cleaning taking into account the required dust collection efficiency is proposed. Based on the dependencies identified, it has been established that the recommended fixed values of the conditional gas velocity used today when selecting a cyclone are overestimated in most cases.
