HIGHLIGHTS

  • Model to describe penetration change during clogging for filter is developed. 
  • Filter penetration is a function of coefficient Κ and deposited dust mass. 
  • Model is verified through laboratory filter experiments with dust loading. 
  • The coefficient Κ is obtained using regression analysis. 

 

ABSTRACT


A model to quantitatively describe penetration change during filter clogging through a fiber filter is proposed. This model is developed using two different analytical methods and indicates that filter penetration is a function of the coefficient K and deposited dust mass in the filter. This is verified through a number of laboratory filter experiments. The coefficient K is obtained using regression analysis via the results of the experiments with different dust loading parameters. K is expressed as a function of aerosol particle diameter, efficiency, and filter material. A larger value of K illustrates a higher increasing rate of efficiency during clogging. A larger value of K also correlates with a smaller aerosol particle size and a higher penetration filter.
