Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, simulations of the flow within the solid-liquid hydrocyclone operating with an air core and with an inserted metal rod were performed. And the effect of the inserted-rod on the velocity distributions and the separation performance was investigated.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of particle-fluid and particle-particle interactions of the flow within a hydrocyclone was investigated by applying the time-scale analysis, and it was shown that the particle-fluid interactions, due to the lubrication and collision mechanisms, only play an important role in the vicinity of a hydrocycle wall, and near the air core.

TL;DR: Van Kampen as mentioned in this paper provides an extensive graduate-level introduction which is clear, cautious, interesting and readable, and could be expected to become an essential part of the library of every physical scientist concerned with problems involving fluctuations and stochastic processes.
Abstract: N G van Kampen 1981 Amsterdam: North-Holland xiv + 419 pp price Dfl 180 This is a book which, at a lower price, could be expected to become an essential part of the library of every physical scientist concerned with problems involving fluctuations and stochastic processes, as well as those who just enjoy a beautifully written book. It provides an extensive graduate-level introduction which is clear, cautious, interesting and readable.

TL;DR: This work focuses on the design of a new approximation algorithm that reduces the cost of functional evaluations and yet increases the attainable order higher, and the classical ERK methods.
Abstract: During the last decade, a big progress has been achieved in the analysis and numerical treatment of Initial Value Problems (IVPs) in Differential Algebraic Equations (DAEs) and Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs). In spite of the rich variety of results available in the literature, there are still many specific problems that require special attention. Two of such, which are considered in this work, are the optimization of order of accuracy and reduction of cost of functional evaluations of Explicit Runge - Kutta (ERK) methods. Traditionally, the maximum attainable order p of an s-stage ERK method for advancing the solution of an IVP is such that p(s) 4 In 1999, Goeken presented an s-stage ERK Method of order p(s)=s +1,s>2. However, this work focuses on the design of a new approximation algorithm that reduces the cost of functional evaluations and yet increases the attainable order higher U n and Jonhson [94]; and the classical ERK methods. The order p of the new scheme called Multiderivative Explicit Runge-Kutta (MERK) Methods is such that p(s) 2. The stability, convergence and implementation for the optimization of IVPs in DAEs and ODEs systems are also considered.
