An Experimental analysis on Flow and Particle in a Hydro cyclone classifiers

Separation of water from mine tailing in mining process as well as wastewater resulted from highly concentrated tailings can play a significant role in water recycling and reduce water demand in the mines. An understanding of flow and turbulence can contribute a major task to design hydro cyclone. Therefore, construction of an experimental model with a known characteristic in put can help to analyze hydro cyclone process. This model could possibly be simple, albeit it can behave very closely to prototype. Results and analysis from the model may be employed to verify a numerical simulation.
