In this study, the Taguchi method was applied in order to design experiments and optimize the performance of mini-hydrocyclones by closed underflow for sand removal from well water. To optimize the hydrocyclones, two indices, mass removal efficiency and the cut diameter, were used. The first index analysis results showed that under the optimum cond...

... actual results of the medium scale hydrocyclone compared with those of the mini-scale one showed that, although the cut diameter slightly increased, the mass efficiency of the two small-and medium-scale hydrocyclones was close to each other and that increasing the scale did not have a significant effect on efficiency and hydrocyclone performance. The optimal medium-scale hydrocyclone (four hydrocyclones per well) installed in a Mashhad well is shown in Figure 4. ...
