Separation efficiency

Cyclone purifier has been conventionally used for separating particles from exhaustion. This paper, however, tried to develop a cyclone purifier for fresh air treatment in ventilation. Simulations were carried out based on continuity equation, momentum equation, RNG k-epsilon turbulent flow equation and Discrete Phase Model; the discrete griddings were both structural and non-structural; the software used was FLUENT. The separation efficiencies, pressure drops and the flow patterns of air in the cyclone purifier were simulated.
