The centrifugal solids separator

Authors: V.G. Ostrovskiy, S.N. Peshcherenko (Perm National Research Polytechnical University, RF, Perm), M.O. Perelman (AO Novomet-Perm, RF, Perm)

Key words: fine particles, abrasive particles, the particle separator, abrasive wear.

The paper published the results of studies on the mechanism of destruction submersible solids separator. It has been established that the cause of failure is the accumulation of solids in the central part of the separator. A new design of the separator, wherein the vertical component of particle velocity prevents their accumulation and the rate of wear sleeve 10 times lower than that of the reference design.
