I’ll see what I can dig up. I did a project without a final baghouse and was 
amazed at how much the 1% loss of efficiency really amounted to! (it’s all 
super-fines). But getting the first 98-or-99% collected takes a huge load off 
the baghouse. A critical part of the cyclone is a long-ish downcomer that allow 
the material to accumulate and discharge with out disrupting the vortex 
dynamics. Learned by experience! Also, stacked Posiflate valves in lieu of a 
rotary airlock.

 

Best, Mark

Then, a tall skinny, cyclone 
 

Hi mark

I was wondering if you or some one on the list has the math for the efficiency 
ratios for cyclones ie. Tall skinny vrs short fat cfm, volume? Particulates?

Thanks
