Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of liquid-solid cyclone separation, and particularly relates to a multi-dimensional sand separation cyclone field particle tracing and capturing test method and test platform. Background Art

[0002] Argillaceous sandstone-type ore resources usually exist in complex multiphase media. The extraction and separation efficiency is mainly affected and controlled by the characteristics of the medium interface. It is difficult to achieve low-cost and high-efficiency extraction of argillaceous sandstone ore by directly using traditional single leaching processes. Although existing technologies have gradually developed processes combining physical, chemical, and microbial methods, the overall extraction effect for severely argillized sandstone ore is still not ideal.

[0003] A cyclone is a device for classifying or separating according to particle size and density. The sand separation cyclone technology can classify and separate the sand in argillaceous sandstone ore. To improve the separation performance of the cyclone, it is necessary to deeply understand and study its internal flow field. The hydrodynamic behavior of the fluid inside the cyclone and the movement law of the dispersed-phase sand particles are very complex, and it is difficult to accurately measure the velocity components of the particles in the tangential, radial, and axial directions. Therefore, how to stably and reliably obtain the multi-dimensional sand separation cyclone technology parameters is the key to breaking through the rapid sand washing and accurate classification technology.

[0004] Existing technologies usually use computer simulation software to simulate the movement law of sand particles in the cyclone field. However, due to the difficulty in setting working conditions and material parameters in advance, a large amount of experimental data and data analysis and fitting are required. Therefore, software simulation distortion will occur, greatly reducing the auxiliary function for actual production, and the cost of collecting a large amount of industrial field trial production data is very high, with poor scalability;

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a multi-dimensional sand separation cyclone field particle tracing and capturing test method and platform for simulating corresponding actual working conditions in the laboratory, obtaining the velocity distribution information at any cross-section and multi-dimensional spatial points in the cyclone field, so as to achieve non-contact, non-disturbing, high-precision measurement and display of the entire flow field in a complex flow field environment, and provide real-time and accurate data for actual industrial production.
