Temperature profiles in the cyclone furnace and in the residence chamber.
Vectors coloured by velocity in the region of the exhaust elbow. Recirculation zones develop which force the core of the flow into the centre and increases the local velocity substantially. This is typical of right-angle bends, and shows that where possible a radiused bend is preferable.
