A cyclone separator like that in Fig. P6-14 is used to remove fine solid particles, such as fly ash, that are suspended in a gas stream. In the flue-gas system of an electrical power plant, the weight fraction of fly ash in the exhaust gases is approximately 0.001. Determine the mass flow rates at the two outlets (flue gas and fly ash) when 10 kg/s of flue gas and ash mixture enters this unit. Also determine the amount of fly ash collected per year.
