Abstract.
This work presented a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation to predict and to evaluate the effects of inlet velocity and the diameter of overflow tube on the inner vortex.
The calculation was carried out using commercial CFD code Ansys Fluent 14.0.
The introduction of numerical simulation tool CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) can provide a better understanding of the rotational and high-turbulent flow in the interior of hydrocyclone2.
The entire geometry was meshed by sweep method of structural hexahedrons, which is accessible to faster and more accurate results in CFD.

This study
presents consisted in to simulate through computational fluid dynamics (CFD) package the
operation of the Lapple cyclone.
If numerical simulations are conducted the immediate need for validation arises if the results are to be of practical use [3].
CFD is often perceived as a virtual fluids laboratory where experiments can be performed on the computer, but numerical simullation actually holds many advantages over its traditional counterpart, including: speed, cost, completeness of information, and simulation of all operating conditions.
The Yield of Pressure showed in the Fig.6, presents layer defined of the pressure in the cyclone, with maximum in the wall and minimum in the axis. 5 - Conclusions The relevant variables in the study of cyclones through the simulations using the techniques of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) are compared to the experimental data of the literature [8] showing a good agreement.
The CFD techniques are a reliable and relatively inexpensive method of examining the effects of design changes on sampler performance of cyclone.

In the past several decades, with the progress of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and the development of computer technology, flow simulations based on the Euler/Navier–Stokes (N–S) equations become more and more capable of modeling non-linear and viscous effects more accurately.
In this paper, time marching analysis based on CFD-CSD method for a wing is used to capture the flutter boundary, in these simulations, the structure is given an initial velocity and the subsequent time evolution of the response is calculated to see whether it grows or decays.

Based on the analysis, the simulation result is qualitatively discussed referring to the factual conditions of the engine for validating the feasibility of analysis method.
The appropriate relationships of these stresses can be built by turbulent models, such as the standard model, which is widely used in engineering, is adopted in this paper; this model is a semi-empirical model of the two equations of the turbulent kinetic energy and the diffusion rate , the control equations are as follows: (2) where, represents the fluid’s density, represents the fluid’s dynamical viscosity coefficient, represents the turbulent viscosity coefficient, represents the turbulent kinetic energy created by the average velocity grads. 3 Interpolation method of CFD-CSD Because CSD and CFD mesh disaccord, CSD mesh is sparseness then CFD mesh, so you must insert the CSD displacement of mesh node to CFD mesh node to make the data exchange.
Mathematical Simulation.
The MFX-ANSYS/CFX coupling platform is developed by the ANSYS Corporation to realize the coupling calculation between CFD and CSD.
