Review of CFD Analysis of Pressure Drop and Mass Transfer in Spinning Cone Columns

Study of SCC columns by CFD analysis has been increased in recent years due to the introduction of advanced computers and CFD soft wares such as CFX. These columns have a complicated geometry. CFD analysis can be used to optimize the design and control of these columns. Researches in the area of CFD analysis of SCC columns have been carried out mainly in Sydney and Sistan and Baluchestan Universities. In this paper a complete review of published works in the area of CFD analysis of SCC columns are presented. The information given could be used to direct the future research in this area.
