Filter Experiment Tab
Experimental setup and material parameters: The oil passes through the pleated filter with a flow rate of 4 l/min. The filter has a surface area of about 280 cm², so the average superficial flow velocity in the filter media is therefore ~2.4 mm/s. Thus, flow in the filter media is slow. The test reservoir volume is initially clean and contains 6 l. The injection reservoir volume contains 29 l which contain 11 g of the test dust. 25 ml are discharged per minute on the upstream and downstream side of the filter. |
