Abstract

Abstract This paper presents a model for the initial particle deposition in a deepbed filter with a sphere‐in‐cell porous media model used. The analysis includes all the relevant mechanisms, and the results indicate that deposition occurs under favorable surface interactions. A semiempirical expression relating collection efficiency and operating parameters is presented.
