How can we measure practically cyclone efficiency ?
Raj Sahu
Dust collection efficiency of a cyclone can be measured by the following formula:
Cyclone Efficiency = Dust loss at the out let of the cyclone (Tons/hour) *100 / Dust at the input to the cyclone (Tons/hr)
Dust loss of the preheater top stage can be measured by drop test during kiln stable condition and during Raw Mill stop condition for at least two hours and weighig the collected dust loss.

Dear Babli
Thats a very good question.
First we should know, which kind of cyclones, preheater, raw mill etc

Dear all,
Basically I am interested to know efficiency of preheater cyclone (top and other stages). How the dust loss at the outlet and dust in the inlet as mentioned by Mr. Raj can be measured practically?Please throw some more light on it.
I would also appreciate if you let me know how to claculate the efficiency of cyclone for Raw Mills
