The goal of this project is to design a system that uses centrifugal force to remove as much dust as possible from a flowing air line with minimal loss of pressure.
The designed centrifugal particle separator removes fine dust, 1-100 microns in diameter, remaining in a high-pressure air line after the air has passed through a filter. Parameters modeled and tested include number of swirl blades, blade length, and migration length.
