In this study, analytical solutions for penetration efficiency of a polydisperse aerosol in fibrous filter were derived employing Brownian diffusion and inertial impaction as removal mechanisms. Size distribution of aerosol particles was assumed to be represented by a log-normal function during the
## Abstract Liquid aerosols produced in many manufacturing and refining processes need to be filtered from the exhaust streams. Where wettable fibers are used in the filters, the aerosol liquid collects on the fibers. Observation shows that thin films develop on the fibers, and the liquid drains do
Chemical, manufacturing and refining processes often generate toxic liquid by products that are emitted as liquid aerosols in the waste stream. Wettable and nonwettable fibers can be used to filter these exhaust streams. The behavior of liquid aerosols and droplets on nonwettable fibers is studied b
