Approximation of the filtration flow curve through the layers of sorbents and ionites in petrochemical and environmental mass transfer equipment

Abstract

Abstract A modified equation is presented for approximating experimental filtration flow curves through layers of sorbents and ionites in petrochemical and environmental mass transfer equipment, which makes it possible to decipher the contribution of the increasing inertial component of the filtration flow structure and to estimate the intensity of the upgrowth of filtration flow turbulence. The prospects of using the modified equation for solving spatial filtration problems are shown, since it ensures the continuity of the velocity fields and pressure gradients with successive changes in the filtration flow mode.
