Gas Cyclones and Swirl Tubes Principles, Design and Operation

The subject of this book is centrifugal gas cleaning devices, namely cyclones used as gas-solid separators for dedusting and as gas-liquid separators for demisting. The optimization of cyclone performance for any given task is an often-sought goal but is seldom achieved in practice. Understanding cyclone performance as a function of a cyclone's size, geometry, feed properties, feed flow rates and the system of which it is a part, is essential if one wishes to successfully design, operate, troubleshoot or predict cyclone performance. The information presented in this book will help to develop this understanding.Hoffmann, Alex C. is the author of 'Gas Cyclones and Swirl Tubes Principles, Design and Operation' with ISBN 9783540433262 and ISBN 3540433260.
