Q5) a) Draw a neat sketch of cyclone separator. Compare the dimensions of conventional and high efficiency cyclone. [6] b) An air stream with a flow rate of 500 m3/min is passed through a standard cyclone of diameter 2 m. [6] i) Determine the cutsize for particles with density of 1.5 g/cc. ii) What will be the cutsize if same velocity was maintained in multiple cyclone of 400 mm diameter. Data :- Number of effective turns 5, Viscosity of air 2 10 5 kg/ms. c) List and compare different particulate emission control techniques. [6] OR Q6) a) A plate type electrostic precipitator for use in cement plant for removing dust particles consists of 10 equal channels. The spacing between the plates are 0.15 m and the plates are 2 m high and 2 m long. The unit handles 10,000 m3/hr of gas. What is the efficiency of collection. What should be the length of plates for achieving 99% collection efficiency if other condition are same. Where Vpm = 0.1 m/sec. [8] b) A conventional cyclone with diameter 1 m handles 3.0 m3/sec of standard air carrying particles with a density of 2000 kg/m 3. For Ne = 6, determine the cutsize, where a = 0.5 m, p = 2000 kg/m3, g = 1.81 10 5 kg/m.sec. [4] c) Explain the gravity settling Chamber with neat sketch.
