Study on Collecting Efficiency of Lube-oil Filtration Media

We made an experimental study and analysis on the relationships between filtration collecting efficiency and porosity, fiber diameter, and particles diameters for differential porosity media when fibrous media collecting lube-oil. The influencing extent of porosity, dust concentration, and velocity impacting on collecting efficiency were researched by orthogonal experimental test. The results showed that porosity had the best salience affection on collecting efficiency, and the affection of velocity and dust concentration was less. The main factors of impacting on collecting efficiency were porosity, fiber diameter, particles diameter, dust concentration, filtration time and filtration velocity. The correlation formula between collecting efficiency and porosity, aperture diameter, fiber diameter, particles diameter, the thickness of media, and filtration time was obtained. It can forecast the collecting efficiency of lube-oil filtration media and provide a guide for selecting suitable fibrous filtration media.
