Estimating the term…
A hydrocyclone having a mid-section having a longitudinal axis and a radius, and a fluid injection member releasably connected to the mid-section. The fluid injection member has a dilution passage therethrough and two spaced apart dilution ports, at least one dilution port being at an angle between 15 and 75 degrees relative to the mid-section radius. The injection member comprises a nozzle housing releasably connected to the mid-section, the nozzle housing having a dilution passage therethrough, and a nozzle adapted to be connected to the nozzle housing, the nozzle being planar and having at least one dilution port therethrough, the nozzle being receivable within the dilution passage.
A hydrocyclone having a base end and an apex end and a single separation chamber between the base end and the apex end, and a mid-section between the base end and the apex end having a longitudinal axis and a radius, the mid-section having an interior for fluid passage therethrough, and a fluid injection member in the mid-section having at least one dilution port therethrough, the dilution port being into the interior of the mid-section and causing fluid to enter a tapering interior of the mid-section with both tangential and radial velocity components.
A hydrocyclone having a base end and an apex end and a single separation chamber between the base end and the apex end, and a mid-section between the base end and the apex end having a tapering interior for fluid passage therethrough, a fluid injection member connected to the mid-section, the fluid injection member having a dilution passage therethrough, and at least one dilution port therethrough, the dilution port being into the tapering interior of the mid-section and causing fluid to enter the interior of the mid-section at an angle of between 5 and 75 degrees relative to the mid-section radius.
