High inlet solid loading is one of the most important features of cyclone separators in high density circulating fluidized beds(CFB).In this work,the effect of high solid loading on pressure drop in a reverse-flow cyclone was experimentally studied.The particles used were sand and γ-Al2O3.An extended range of inlet solid loadings(M),up to 30 kg of solids/kg of air was tested at different inlet air velocities(Vin=16~24 m/s),well beyond the solid loading range reported before.The experiments showed that,in the tested range of solid loadings,the cyclone pressure drop decreased dramatically with increasing solid loading when M<7.5 kg/kg and then almost remained constant.A new semi-empirical model for predicting cyclone pressure drop was also developed.The calculated and experimental results showed good agreement for particle free flow and particle laden flow.
High inlet solid loading is one of the most important features of cyclone separators in high density circulating fluidized beds (CFB). In this work, the effect of high solid loading on pressure drop in a reverse-flow cyclone was experimentally studied. Particles. were sand and γ-Al2O3.An extended range of inlet solid loadings (M), up to 30 kg of solids / kg of air was tested at different inlet air velocities (Vin = 16-24 m / s), well beyond the solid loading range reported before. The experiments showed that, in the tested range of solid loadings, the cyclone pressure drop decreased dramatically with increasing solid loading when M <7.5 kg / kg and then almost always constant. A new semi-empirical model for predicting cyclone pressure drop was also developed. The calculated and experimental results showed good agreement for particle free flow and particle laden flow.
