why do tangential entry require for a cyclone separator?



why do tangential entry require for a cyclone separator?..

Answer / surya

in a cyclone separtor if tangential entry is provided the fluid follows a helical path on the walls of the container because of that the denser particleswere sticke to the walls of the container due the centrifugal force of action there by leavinfg the lighter particles at the middle and will come out from the upper portion of the separator.

In a triple effect evaporator, the heat transfer for an evaporator is calculated as q = UA (TI – TF) where TI is the initial temperature, TF is the final temperature; U and A are constants. Given that heat transfer for the first evaporator : q(1) = UA (TI – TB); second evaporator : q(2) = UA (TB – TC); third evaporator : q(3) = UA (TC – TF) where q(x) is the heat transfer function, TB is the temperature of second inlet and TC is the temperature of third inlet, prove that the overall heat transfer Q = q(1) q(2) q(3) = UA (TI – TF).
