Abstract

In the reactor for the american standard test method (ASTM) D5757-95 with swirl injection nozzles, the attrition characteristics of sand was investigated. The change of particle size distribution and weight of fine particles were compared to identify the effect of swirl injection nozzle on attrition. The fine particles due to particle attrition increased with increasing gas velocities. The weight of fine particles due to jet attrition was changed with angle of swirl injection nozzle. The fine particles decreased with decreasing the angle of swirl injection nozzle. Also, the change of particle size distribution increased with increasing the number of swirl injection nozzles at the same flow rate.
