Abstrakt: A numerical study of the aerodynamics of a swirling turbulent flow and of the classification of particles in the vortex chamber of a pneumatic combined apparatus has been performed. The obtained results indicate the possibility of achieving a uniform distribution of the radial flow velocity along the height of the chamber in the particle separation zone in it by changing the shape of the rotor blades of the apparatus, which is a prerequisite for its efficient operation. The trajectories of motion of single particles in the vortex chamber are determined. A significant effect of turbulent flow pulsations on the efficiency of particle separation in it has been established. The reliability of the obtained results is confirmed by test studies and by their comparison with experimental data. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
