  2. Hydrodynamic separator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrodynamic_separator

    In civil engineering (specifically hydraulic engineering), a hydrodynamic separator (HDS) is a stormwater management device that uses cyclonic separation to control water pollution. They are designed as flow-through structures with a settling or separation unit to remove sediment and other pollutants. [ 1 ]

  3. Cyclonic separation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclonic_separation

    A partially demolished factory with dominating cyclonic separators. Cyclonic separation is a method of removing particulates from an air, gas or liquid stream, without the use of filters, through vortex separation. When removing particulate matter from liquid, a hydrocyclone is used; while from gas, a gas cyclone is used.

    Each vortex creates a circular (ring) flow field whose axis varies slightly from the vertical as it passes. The figure suggests that the main component of the force on the physical ring is in the direction of the jet flow. If the vortex is a true ring (all parts are in phase), a dipole sound field directed along the jet axis is created.

  5. Flow separation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_separation

    For internal flows, flow separation produces an increase in the flow losses, and stall-type phenomena such as compressor surge, both undesirable phenomena. [8] Another effect of boundary layer separation is regular shedding vortices, known as a Kármán vortex street. Vortices shed from the bluff downstream surface of a structure at a frequency ...

    These paved the way to practical computation of the velocities from the vortex elements. Software based on the vortex method offer a new means for solving tough fluid dynamics problems with minimal user intervention. [citation needed] All that is required is specification of problem geometry and setting of boundary and initial conditions. Among ...

    The green vortex generators prompt the transition to turbulent flow and prevent back-flow also called flow separation from the high-pressure region in the back. The surface in front is as smooth as possible or even employs shark-like skin, as any turbulence here increases the energy of the airflow.

  8. Hydrocyclone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrocyclone

    The decreasing diameter in the conical part increases the speed and so enhances the separation. Finally, the concentrated solids are discharged through the apex. The vortex finder in the overflow part creates a fast rotating upward spiral movement of the fluid in the centre of the conically shaped housing.

  9. Kármán vortex street - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kármán_vortex_street

    Visualisation of the vortex street behind a circular cylinder in air; the flow is made visible through release of glycerol vapour in the air near the cylinder. In fluid dynamics, a Kármán vortex street (or a von Kármán vortex street) is a repeating pattern of swirling vortices, caused by a process known as vortex shedding, which is responsible for the unsteady separation of flow of a fluid ...
