Abstract

We report the calculation of the efficiency for particle separation processes occurring in suspension under transverse force field in a circular duct. The calculation has been performed for a laminar fluid flow directed toward the duct vertical axis. The force field acting on the suspended particles only, is orthogonal to the duct. In the dimensionless calculations occurs a dimensionless group, Ca, which provides a tool for the dimensioning of the purification section.
