Hurricane MK - Numerically Optimized Cyclone

Optimizing Cyclone’s Efficiency

Supported by the PACyc Model, and considering several economical and operation constraints (such as size and pressure loss), with numerical optimization it is possible to generate millions of virtual prototypes within an affordable time period, and to observe the impact of each dimension ratio on the cyclone performance.

Considering this approach as the best path to obtain truly optimized cyclones, sound theories of cyclone collection and pressure loss were chosen for each application, and afterwards improved for predicting collection efficiencies for new geometries. These numerical optimization problems have resulted in many different new lines of cyclones and several patents.

Different Objectives - Different Cyclones

Indeed, different industrial cases have different needs resulting in very different cyclones, for which the optimization functions may be minimizing cost, minimizing space, among others. When high efficiency is required and particles are prone to agglomerate, which includes most of the handled dusts; recent developed Hurricane MK line of cyclones can be a solution to achieve emissions as low as 30mg/Nm3.
