Abstract

In this paper, aiming at PM 1, namely submicron particles which are the most difficult to remove in traditional purification technologies, it tries to improve their removal efficiency depending on collision enhancement and agglomeration effect. The effect of electric field and plate structure on collision enhancement is studied. Besides, a novel structure of corrugated plate is put forward and its removal performance is compared with parallel plate. Results show that it confirms the key function of the external electric field on the enhancement of particle collision through the trajectory visualization of particle streams with different polarity charging types. The intense turbulence quickens the particle collision and agglomeration in corrugated plate, and the enhancement of electric field around the bend can bring a quick capture firstly, and then the nonuniformity of electric field also leads to the positive effect of particle collision. Corrugated plate can achieve a 12% improvement of removal efficiency for PM 1 compared with traditional parallel plate, under consideration of collision enhancement brought by the airflow arrangement and agglomeration effect under Coulomb force between positive and negative particles.
