Study of Diesel Soot Particle Emission Control by Theoretical Modelling Of Electro Cyclone Separator

Abstract

This paper describes possibilities to separate particles with difficult dust properties from gases. Difficult dust properties are related to extreme values of particle size and shape and to the flow ability, the adhesion properties or the reactivity of the particles. Special emphasis is given to submicron particles. In cyclones, conductive particles such as diesel soot can be removed by means of additional electrostatic forces.[2]The separative performance of a cyclone can be enhanced if electrical forces are employed to supplement the inertial forces. By precharging the particles and applying a radial electric field within the cyclone, collection efficiency is improved. In the present paper, a model is developed for such an electrostatically augmented cyclone. The model assumes that turbulence promotes complete radial mixing within each of three regions: the entrance region, the down flow region and the core (or up flow) region. Based on this model, an analytic expression for the collection efficiency of cyclone separators is developed. Several solutions have been proposed to date like ceramic filtration, wire mesh filtration, direct contact type filtration systems etc., which suffer from high engineering complexity, high costs as well as increased backpressure. Most of the proposed solutions deteriorate diesel engine combustion performance and simultaneously increases fuel consumptions. This paper presents the electrostatic attraction of ultra fine diesel soot particulate matter for exhaust gas treatment and the theoretical modelling of effect of collection efficiency of ultra fine particulate matter emitted from diesel engine exhaust gas through an electro-cyclone and other operating parameters i.e. applied voltage, flow rate, the particle parameters like particle size, shape and dielectric properties, exhaust gas density, viscosity on the performance of electro cyclone separator as a Diesel Soot Particulate Emission Arrester[4].
