Automotive Technology Conference on Vehicle Design, Development and Manufacturing (OTEKON 08 - VDDM)’da bildiri olarak sunulmuştur.This study deals With the use of cyclone separators as air filters ill light or heavy duty vehicles. Cyclone separators were compared with the conventional air filters, which provide low particle collection efficiency with high pressure drop, and these characteristics are made worse by contamination. By taking into account the related Studies in the literature, tangential inlet cyclones were considered in this comparison. The pressure drop and particle collection efficiency in the proposed tangential inlet cyclone were computed by using the mathematical models given in the literature. Comparison of the computed results of the Cyclone With the conventional air filters demonstrated that the tangential inlet cyclones are advantageous because of low pressure drop and high particle collection efficiency and call be used as main or pre-filters in vehicles.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAir filterCyclone separatorPressure dropParticle collection efficiencyVehicleTangential inlet cycloneFlowCFDPerformanceCollectionSamplersDesignEngineeringTransportationCyclone separatorsDropsEfficiencyVehiclesHeavy duty vehiclesHigh pressureLow pressure dropParticle collection efficiencyTangential inletAir filtersArticle0002753032000102-s2.0-72049084741133143521-4, Special IssueEngineering, mechanicalTransportation science & technologyCyclone Separators; Dust Collectors; Pressure Drop
