Abstract

Improvement of pulse-jet cleaning of industrial filters J. Hemerka, P. Vybiral & V. Adhek Department of Environmental Engineering, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Czech Technical University in Prague, Czech Republic. Abstract Research on the improving the function of industrial air filters with pulse-jet cleaning has been running at our Department since 1996, and various projects have been carried out. Recently, research has focused on problems of geometry optirnisation of the elements of pulse-jet cleaning. This paper deals with an investigation of the influence of the volumes of both the "dirty" and the "clean" part of the filter unit on the pulse-jet cleaning efficiency. Cleaning efficiency has received no attention in the literature in this area till now. The research was carried out on an experimental filter unit with a single filter bag, built in our laboratory from real filter parts - 5" filter bag diameter, 2 730 mrn bag length. In order to evaluate the tested versions a point evalu
