Hydrocyclone Classification Efficiency from Partition Curve (Tromp Curve) Integral calculator computes Classification efficiency in dimensionless using the defined engineering formula and the input values provided. Classification efficiency is expressed in dimensionless. No universal acceptance threshold is defined by this calculator.

Worked Example

Verified calculation

Given:

  • Cut size of hydrocyclone (d50c) = 3.5E-5
  • Feed median particle size (d50f) = 4.2E-5
  • Feed 25th percentile size (d25f) = 2.1E-5
  • Feed 75th percentile size (d75f) = 6.3E-5

Expected Result:

  • Classification efficiency = 0.94444444444444

Engineering Interpretation:

Under the given input conditions, the calculated result is: Classification efficiency = 0.94444444444444 dimensionless.

The actual numerical result is computed by the Runtime engine using the persisted tool definition. The values shown here come from deterministically validated test cases.

Formula / Method

classification efficiency = 1.0 - 2.0 * (pow((d50c - d50f), 2.0) / (d75f - d25f)) * (1.0 / (d75f - d25f))
