Performance of a micro-cyclone, mainly its pressure drop and collection efficiency, has been measured, using monodisperse aerosol by means of a Sinclair-LaMer generator. Even in a micro-cyclone, the modified pressure drop is found as proportional to the square of inlet velocity in its wide range. Over 90% collection efficiency is obtained for one-micron particles (particle density is about 1g/cm3) at the normal inlet velocity (20m/sec), and for 0.25 micron particles at 50m/sec inlet velocity too. The collection efficiency can be correlated to the inertia parameter with a modified factor of particle size for all experimental conditions.
