Popis: Energy is the basic sector of the economy and the largest consumer of primary energy resources of any country, which is why the development of world energy is accompanied by global pressure on the environment. The issues are considered of reducing the atmospheric impact of emissions of thermal power plants, improving the reliability and working life of their units, systems, and plants as a whole. The principles are presented of development and improvement of technologies for processing industrial emissions of thermal power plants, the neutralization of which is currently relevant on a regional and global scale. Analysis is carried out of existing methods of cyclone and filtration treatment. An improved design of a cyclone filter is proposed, which allows to increase the reliability of gas turbine and steam-gas units of TPP, while ensuring the efficiency of separation of the suspended part of the flow at the gas treatment point (GTP) of TPP. Similar devices can also be used to increase the degree of cleaning atmospheric emissions released by the TPP coal dust preparation and flue gas systems at coal generation from fi ne particles of PM10 and PM2,5 classes (coal dust and ash), owing to reduction of the size of caught particles from average values for cyclones and wet scrubbers of the order of 5–10 μm to 0.5 μm. The design of the cyclone filter is improved as a result of research of cyclone filtration by methods of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). A system of Reynolds-averaged equations of a single-phase Navier-Stokes flow is used for mathematical modeling of motion in the cyclone filter. To determine the efficiency of separation of the suspended part of the flow in the cyclone filter, the Rercomplex is used obtained by reducing a set comprising the Navier-Stokes equations and the equation of particle motion based on Newton's law to a dimensionless form. Numerical characteristics of the suspension sedimentation from a multiphase flow in a cyclone separator of specified dimensions are found by means of the Rercomplex. The results of bench tests of the proposed design of the cyclone filter are given.
