Abstract
Cordierite bonded porous SiC ceramics having pore fractions (e) between 0.33 and 0.72 and pore sizes of 6–50 μm, flexural strength of 5–54 MPa, and elastic modulus of 6–42 GPa were prepared by oxide bonding at 1350 °C in air compacts of SiC, Al2O3 and MgO powders with petroleum coke (PC) as the sacrificial pore former. To test the applicability of the porous ceramics in the fluid flow field, air permeation behavior was studied with fluid superficial velocity from 0.083 to 0.90 m s–1 and at 26–750 °C. The Darcian, k1, and the non-Darcian, k2, permeability coefficients were evaluated by fitting Forchheimer’s equation to the experimental results. The temperature dependence of the permeability coefficients was explained from structural changes occurring during test conditions. The collection efficiency of filter ceramics (e = 0.62–0.68) operating on removal of nanosized aerosol particles with sizes varying from 7 to 300 nm was determined by counting particles before and after filtration at a fluid superficial...
