Popis: A mathematical model has been constructed for the motion of multiphase heterogeneous media over the surface of rotating extension pieces and in hydrocyclones. The model takes into account the separation and thickening of the medium and the existence of a hydrodynamic starting length. Continuum- and trajectory-based approaches to the problem of the motion of multiphase heterogeneous media are suggested. The conservation equations of heterogeneous fluid mechanics have been solved by the flow rate isosurface method. The results of numerical calculations are presented for flows over the inner surface of a conical rotor and in a hydrocyclone.
