Separator design optimization for collecting the finely dispersed particles from the gas flows

This paper deals with the problem of gas flow purification from the finely dispersed particles, which is becoming significantly important nowadays due to the growth of production capacities. The authors developed a separator in order to solve this problem. This paper shows the design scheme of device and the principle of its operation. The authors studied the changes in the pressure losses within the device at different inlet rate of gas flow, as well as different parameters of finely dispersed particles: density and size. The studies show that in order to improve the quality of gas flow purification from the finely dispersed particles, it is necessary to increase the energy costs due to an increase in the pressure loses in the separator
