โฆ Synopsis
The axi-symmetric turbulent boundary layers formed on the conical surface and under the roof of different hydrocyclones have been studied for higher Reynolds numbers. Calculating the total flux through the boundary layers it has been found that the mathematical model for the flowfield, presented in a previous paper [2] for the 1/7th power law velocity distribution, holds even for higher Reynolds numbers and for different cyclones with vortex finder diameters greater than that of apex opening. Theoretical results agree well with previous experimental findings.

As in the laminar case (see previous paper), the axi-symmetric turbulent boundary layers have been studied inside a hydrocyclone having overflow diameter greater than that of underflow. This type of hydroeyclone is generally used in practical applications. Calculating total flux through the boundary
