Hydrodynamics of the hydrocyclone flow field : effects of turbulence modelling, geometrical and design parameters
This thesis describes a numerical study of the effect of swirl on the flow hydrodynamics in hydrocyclones and rotating pipes. Kinetic (force balance) and kinematic (velocity field) analysis were performed to identify the relative importance of turbulence, convective, and pressure forces in these flo...
