摘要：The paper deals with the problem of classification of bulk material, based on silica gel, larger than 30 µm, from dusty gas flow. In order to solve this problem, the design of a classifier with coaxially arranged pipes is proposed. According to the conducted studies, it is more efficient to use a classifier with an inner conical pipe to solve the problems of separating the particles from the gas flows of various sizes, since a greater value is achieved for the centrifugal, inertial, gravitational and other forces acting on the dusty flow, that contribute to knocking the particles out of its structure, than in a classifier with a cylindrical inner pipe. On average, the efficiency of a classifier with a conical inner pipe is by 35.3% higher than that of a classifier with a cylindrical inner pipe. Classification of particles of bulk material, based on silica gel, larger than 30 µm from the dusty gas flows is solved most effectively by using a classifier with a conical inner pipe and hd parameter of 50 mm and a classifier with a cylindrical inner pipe and hd parameter of –10 mm.
