Abstract
We study the problem of aerosol filtration by formulating a unified approach that incorporates the dominant mechanisms of particle capture in cylindrical pores. The theoretical approach presented here takes into account the effects of flow slip at the pore wall and predicts an enhanced efficiency in the intermediate crossover regime between Brownian diffusion and direct interception. We also suggest how the results obtained for cylindrical pores can be used to estimate the efficiency of granular ceramic filters in the region of the most penetrating particle size, where the enhanced efficiency effects are strongly amplified by the large number of pores, or more generally unit bed elements, acting in series.
