Abstract
This paper reviews the application of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) fo r cyclone modelling on three-dimensional unstructured meshes using both the Reynolds Stress Turbulence model and Large Eddy Simulation. Results of the subsequent numerical simulations show consistent agreement compared with L aser Doppler Anemometry measurements at a series of axial stations througho ut the length of a Stairmand high efficiency cyclone.
