Question:

A cyclone separator is used to remove sand grains from an airstream at 150°C. If the cyclone body is 0.6 m in diameter and the average tangential velocity is 16 m/s, what is the radial velocity near the wall of particles 20 and 40 μm in size? How much greater are these values than the terminal velocity in gravity settling?
