Computational Fluid Dynamics Approach to Evaluate Electrostatic Precipitator Performance

M. Ahmadi [1]
[1] Faculty of Engineering Technology, University of Twente, Enschede, The Netherlands

Electrostatic precipitation is an extremely efficient way of filtering fine particles from the airstream. Electrostatic precipitators (ESPs) can control airborne emission without significantly slowing down the rate of flow, because of the low pressure drop across this type of filters. A ... Read More
