Abstract
The modeling equations in the previous chapters are not enough to design a cyclone or swirl tube from scratch. The models do not perform well for uncommon designs, and they are not complete enough to be used to find an optimal design for a given duty directly. To assist those who may have the task of actually designing and constructing a cyclone or swirl tube we include some guidelines here. Although the majority of the discussion that follows directly pertains to “dedusting” cyclones and swirl tubes, most of it also applies equally well to demisting cyclones. Regarding the latter, see also Chap 13.
