Abstract

A preliminary model of the formation of chain-like particle agglomerates on fibers during filtration of aerosols in fibrous media is proposed. Such dendrite-like growth has been observed experimentally and occurred beyond the initial period of filtration. Unlike most of the previous studies which are confined to clear filters, the present work is intended for the description of filtration performance (both filtration efficiency and pressure drop) over the entire loading period.
