Multi Cyclone

Description

This Is A Multi Cyclone I Made To Work As A Filter When Cleaning The Pool - And Save A Lot Of Water In The Process - Minimizing Water Needed For Backwashing. Designed For Fine Particles. Works Fine As Filter For The Shop Vac Too (Remembering The Fine Particle Part : Second Stage Filter) In The Making Of This I Did A Lot Of Reading-Up On The Function And Math Involved In These. The Design Parameters Are By No Means Randomly Selected. The Result Is An Efficient And Easy To Print Cyclone. In Order To Separate All The Fine Particles Out, High Speed And Low Travel Distance Is Needed. Achieving This Combined With High Volume Throughput Resulted In A Setup With Multiple Combined Cyclones. The Nozzles Are Designed To Fit Pool And Shop Vac Hoses. I You Want To Use It For A Household Vac You Will Need To Make A Reducer. Warning: Be Careful Not To Use Too High Powered Pumps On This Print. If The Pressure Difference Get Too High, There Is A Risk Om Implosion. Start Easy.. This Multi Cyclone Is Designed To Be Printed With No Support. File Of The Blobs And Seams To Have A Successful Marriage Between The Cyclones And Manifold. You May Want To Break Off One "Tooth" On The Nozzle To Be Mounted On The Outlet Manifold To Have A Good Fit. I Kept All On Mine Though For Better Bond. Try And See What Works For You. It Your Print Left Unwanted Holes, Seal Then Up. Find An Air/Water Tight Bucket And Makes Some Holes In The Lid That Matches The End Of The Funnels. Insert Funnels In The Lid And Glue With Hot Glue Or Silicone. Dirty Media Goes In The Center And Media With Particles Removes Comes Out The Side.
