Abstract

This article contains a new approach to the problem of modeling devices for the sedimentation separation of two-phase systems. It is shown that, regardless of the separation forces of the phase (gravity, centrifugal), the separation efficiency decisive parameter is the velocity gradient of the carrier phase (collinear sedimentation velocity, determined by the difference in density and dynamic viscosity of the carrier phase). The theoretical consideration is complemented by experimental research on a models assemblage (with horizontal flow and vertical deposition), with the invariant value of the specified gradient of the horizontal flow velocity.
