Numerical Simulation of C1 Cyclone in a 5000t/d Cement Clinker Production System

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to investigate the characteristics of C1 cyclone in a 5000t/d cement production system, the gas flow velocity, pressure and raw particles movement trajectory in this cyclone was simulated on the basis of Fluent 6.3. The RNG k-ε turbulence model and the stochastic trajectory model were proposed. The results indicate that the gas flow velocity and pressure distribute symmetrically, the raw meal particles revolve along with the whirling flow and can be separated more efficiently from the gas in this cyclone.
