Emission speed
p = filtering surface x unit of time
m3
= m 2 x min.i
Factors affecting fluctuation of the filtration speed :
Dust content in crude gas
Type of dust and dust quality
Gas temperature
Gas distribution inside the filter
 Determination of the area load
VA = VN . C1 . C2 . C3 . C4 . C5 . C6
The above means:
VA = Dimensioning
Di i i valuel for
f the
th area load.
l d
VN = Regular or basic value for the area load.
C1 = Correction value for the type of cleaning.
C2 = Correction value for the dust content in crude gas.
C3 = Correction value for the dust quality or the particle
size
distribution.
C4 = Correction value for the gas temperature.
C5 = Correction value for the necessary filtration efficiency.
C = Correction value for the abrasive behavior of the dust
