A theoretical derivation is given of the tortuosity factor for a flow through fibrous filters, based on purely geometrical considerations. The resulting expression for the tortuosity appears to be a function of filter and fibre properties. For laminar air flow the tortuosity factor is calculated as

A fibrous filter has been depicted as a random array of cylinders transverse to flow direction. Properties of the resulting aggregate of interlocking pores are evaluated. To this end a Monte Carlo technique is applied to generate an isotropic random line array; it could he proved that properties der
