The cyclonic dryer: a numerical and experimental analysis of the influence of geometry on average particle residence time

Particle residence time is an extremely important variable in a cyclonic dryer project. With the goal of obtaining a device that conduces to a long particle residence time, the influence of cyclone dimensions on particle residence time and on the type of flow is discussed here. The research was base...
