Abstract

Precipitation of charged particles by their image force from laminar flows in rectangular and cylindrical channels is investigated theoretically. Calculations are based on the analysis of limiting trajectories of particles which enables the determination of the precipitation efficiency for channels of different dimensions. Results for cylindrical tubes are applicable to the deposition of charged particles in human lung airways.
