Media Velocity Considerations In Pleated Air Filtration, Frederik Carl Schousboe
USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations
Asset protection in the form of fluid filtration makes up an ever-increasing part of the civilized and industrialized world. Fluid filtration applications in the conditioned environment and life sciences are affording the world’s population a chance to better realize their potential, while industrial applications help ensure that high demand processes can be carried out safely, reliably, and effectively.
In the present work, a tool has been developed, using the computational fluid dynamics package FLUENT, to allow the designer to better predict the magnitude of geometric imperfections within a given pleat configuration.
Pleated rectangular filters, intended to improve the quality of …
