    What Are The Factors Affecting The Number of Cyclone Stages in Preheater Kiln System?

    Uploaded by

    The number of cyclone stages in a preheater kiln system is determined by the throughput and moisture content of raw materials and fuels, as these factors affect the amount of exhaust gas heat available for drying. More stages are typically needed for higher throughput or moisture. Pressure drops and energy requirements generally increase with more stages, but modern 6-stage systems have comparable or lower pressure drops than older 4-stage designs. Fan power and air flow needs are estimated using affinity laws which relate changes in pressure, flow and power to changes in fan speed.

    The key factors that affect the number of cyclone stages in a preheater kiln system are the throughput and moisture content of raw materials and fuels. More stages are generally needed for higher throughput or moisture. The pressure drop is also affected by the number of stages.

    The main factors are the throughput and moisture content of the raw materials and fuels, which have to be dried by the remaining exhaust gas heat. More stages are generally used for higher throughput or moisture.

    According to affinity laws, the pressure, flow and power change with RPM. The flow is directly proportional to RPM. The pressure increases as the square of RPM. And the power increases as the cube of RPM.

    Pressure drops in 6 stages preheater are comparable to or even less than that in a 4 stage preheater of old designs because in old desi
    pressure drop was 50 to 55mbar which is even now greater than 6 stage.
