Pressure drop

In this study, the appropriate cell type for periodic boundary conditions (PBC) in CFD analysis for spacerfilled membrane module design was validated by comparing the simulated values of pressure drop with that obtained by experiments. The pressure drop through spacer-filled channel depends on the g

A good shortcut design method of tubular membrane modules provides a more accurate estimate of the size or area of the module required for a given separation duty and hence its cost. A previous shortcut design method based on the cross-flow nature of the membrane developed by the author considered o

Microfiltration of rigid spherical particle suspension in a hollow fiber module operating with inside–out flow, at a constant module inlet flow rate, was simulated using the shear-induced hydrodynamic diffusion model of Mondor and Moresoli, with consideration of the axial variation of the pressure d
