The dust collection efficiency of a cyclone separator_________________?

Correct answer: C. None of these

  • A. Decreases with increase in gas flow rate
  • B. Is inversely proportional to the mass of the dust particle
  • C. None of these
  • D. Is directly proportional to the radius of the dust particle path

Explanation

Cyclone collection efficiency generally increases with gas velocity and particle size or mass, rather than decreasing or varying inversely with them. The stated dependence on particle-path radius is also not a valid general relation, so none of A to C is correct.
