Summary on Grant Application Form |
|
This proposal is focused on flow and deposition behaviour that occurs in filters incorporating shear fields, such as dynamic filters (torsion shear flows) and pressure belt filters (compressional shear flows). A rigorous study of particle deposition on filter media in torsional and compressional shear flows is to be carried out experimentally and mathematically. The experiments will create a database of deposition behaviour from structured suspensions of well-controlled properties in shear flow filters. The modelling will incorporate recent developments in diffusion in shear flows and recognise particle interactions.
