Description
Summary:National cement consumption is increasing along with the increasing of population and culture development. To fulfil the demand, cement factories need to increase they're production capacity. But to build a new factory will need a long time and a lot of money investment. So it is needed to find different solution by modify existing factory without to much new investment to increase it's production capacity.<p> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> In Indonesia there are still old plants which have small production capacity (below 3000 TPD). The capacity can be increased by adding a calciner. Calciner is a burner to moved 90 % of calcination process (CaCO3&#8594;CaO+ CO2) from kiln.<p> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> But by increasing the capacity, the flow of gas and particle in the factory is also increased. Cyclone evaluation show that the old cyclones need to be modified or re-design. Conventional cyclone was designed by "Cylone design" software. Numerical simulation of the flow inside cyclone is done by application software FLUENT 6.0. Numerical simulation of the flow inside a conventional cyclone and yuril cyclone was done as comparation to designed cyclone.<p> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> The result of the simulation of the top cyclone show that the new cyclone based on design can work well in the new production capacity with efficiency of 88% and pressure drop of 67,45 mmH2O.
