Numerical Simulation of Temperature Field in the Cyclone

Article Preview

Abstract:

The temperature distribution of the cyclone was analyzed in the presented work, which was imitated by using RSM turbulence model of software FLUENT. Temperature difference in different regions is less than one centigrade degree with the maximum temperature in the cone part and the minimum temperature in inlet tube and cylinder part of the cyclone, what’s more, the temperature is relatively higher near the wall. The air compression can lead the higher temperature in the lower part, so the cone part has the maximum temperature. The higher temperature near the wall is caused by the friction between the wall and flow.
