Abstract
- In this paper, three types of air guide vanes are designed: direct-type, L-type, and logarithmic spiral type, respectively. ANSYS-FLUENT 20.0 is used to numerically simulate the internal flow field of turbo air classifier by novel different structures. The numerical results show that the guide vane structures have a good effect on the flow field stability of the annular function zone in the classifying chamber. The distribution of tangential velocity and radial velocity verified the logarithmic spiral guide vane, and makes the airflow flow along the rotor cage circumferentially uniformly. In addition, the turbulent dissipation rate and energy loss decreases in the rotor cage region, which also shows that the guide vane is beneficial to improve classification performance. The tromp curve of the numerical simulation shows that the logarithmic spiral guide vane reduced the cutting size by 6.3% and 23.7% at two different process parameters, and is obviously better than other guide vane structures in improving the classification sharpness index (K). Finally, the reliability of numerical simulation is verified by material experiment. The research results have certain theoretical significance and guidance for the structural design of the guide vanes of the turbo air classifier. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
