Numerical Analysis of Particle Removal Performance of Ceramic Filters

摘要

The gas/solid two-phase flow field in the ceramic filter vessel was simulated using the Eulerian two-fluid model provided by FLUENT code. The ceramic filter vessel contains six ceramic filters which are arranged in the form of equilateral hexagon. The variations of the pressure distribution in the filter cavity during/after the back pulse process were analyzed. The distribution of the filter cake density along the under cleaning filter length and normal filter length was studied. The simulation results agree well with experimental data.
