For a cyclone of diameter 0.2 m with a tangential velocity of 15 m/s at the wall, the separation factor is__________________?
Correct answer: D. 230
- A. 2250
- B. 1125
- C. 460
- D. 230
Explanation
The cyclone separation factor is approximately v²/(gR), where R is the cyclone radius: 15²/(9.81 × 0.1) ≈ 230. Hence option d matches the calculated value.
