Numerical simulation of internal flow field in compound hydrocyclone

Compound hydrocyclone is a new hydrocyclone based on the advantages of dynamic cyclone and static cyclone. The internal flow field of compound hydrocyclone was simulated using amended RNGK-εmodel. The simulation result is in accordance with the experimental data，which proves the correctness of mathematical model and computation. The numerical simulation values of axial velocity and tangential velocity are very approach to the experimental result. The simulated distribution law of radial velocity benefits the cyclone structure and performance analyses. The mathematical model and computing method can be used to forecast the internal flow field of compound hydrocyclone and can also provide an effective way for the study of compound hydrocyclone such as separation mechanism，flow field characteristics and structural optimization design.
