Abstract
The Stokes flow field and aerosol particle deposition from flows in model filters, i.e., separate layers of granules with square and hexagonal structures, have been calculated taking into account the effect of gas slip at granule surface. Approximating formulas have been derived for granule drag forces to a flow. The efficiencies of diffusion collection of particles have been calculated in a wide range of Peclet numbers with allowance for a finite particle size and the existence of a Knudsen boundary layer, the layer thickness being comparable with the particle sizes. The applicability of the cell model to the calculation of granular filters has been discussed.
