Initial Collection Efficiency of Electret Filter and Its Durability for Solid and Liquid Particles t
نویسندگان
چکیده
Expressions to describe the initial collection efficiency of electret filters for both charged and neutral particles were derived covering a wide range of Coulombic force and induced force parameters including the interceptional effect. The prediction equations were in good agreement with the experimental data. Further, the electret charge stability in humid air and in exposure to liquid and solid particles was studied by measuring the time dependency of the particle penetration. It was found that the electret charge is quite stable in humid air but that it is gradually attenuated when exposed to organic droplets because the collected organic droplets spread over the fibers and weaken the electric field around them.

It is very important in the design of a drying system is to evaluate sticking behaviour of the materials goes under drying. A new approach to the sticking issue is applied in this study by carrying out a sticking test for the liquid associated with the materials under study. It was found that the liquid bridge is responsible of the initial sticking of the materials to the contact surface and th...
متن کاملEffect of Filter Inhomogeneity on Deep-Bed Filtration Process – A CFD Investigation
Aerosol filtration in fibrous filters is one of the principal methods of removal of solid particles from the gas stream. The classical theory of depth filtration is based on the assumption of existing single fiber efficiency, which may be used to the recalculation of the overall efficiency of the entire filter. There are several reasons for inappropriate estimation of the single fi...
