Influence of filter surface roughness on the pressure drop of ceramic foam filters
Abstrak
The pressure drop of a ceramic foam filter is an important characteristic indicating the resistance to fluid flow through the filter. Filtration experiments have shown that filtration efficiency increases with decreasing functional pore size. However, this improvement comes at the cost of a higher pressure drop. Furthermore, trials with increased roughness of filter struts showed an improved filtration behavior. Comparing the influence of these filter properties on the filter efficiency is of high interest in terms of filtration per pressure drop. Therefore, the sensitivity of the pressure drop with respect to surface roughness needs to be known. In the study, the pressure drop of ceramic foam filters was measured for different functional pore sizes, porosities, and surface roughness in a water-based test facility at NTNU in Trondheim, Norway. The flow velocity was varied in the range of 0.6–80 cm/s, allowing the determination of the Darcy and non-Darcy permeability coefficients.
