Modeling of the separation for system the liquid - solid in the battery of hydrocyclones

Abstract

The mathematical model of the process of separation for the liquid – solid system in the hydrocyclone battery is considered, at that the devices are equipped with replaceable pairs of inserts for varying the diameters of the inlet and outlet pipes. It is established that when assessing the overall degree of purification of the suspension in the hydrocyclone battery with the same diameter of the corpuses and replaceable diameters of the pipes, it is necessary to take into account not only the separation factor, but also the average residence time of the liquid in the separation zone. In this connection, it is proposed the parameter P, equal to the product of these indicators. In this interpretation, increase the total degree of purification of the suspension concomitantly with increase the number of hydrocyclones in the battery is consistent with the corresponding value of the parameter R.

“…The system employs hydrocyclones because it is a separator equipment without moving parts, with high solid-liquid separation efficiency and simple operation. The system configuration in terms of the number of hydrocyclones, per battery, will depend on the desired operating conditions and in terms of flow rate per hydrocyclone battery (Lamskova et al, 2019).
