Electrostatic Precipitator

Application ID: 71361


This model computes the fluid flow, charge transport and electric potential in an electrostatic precipitator. Based on the resulting fields, particles of different diameter are fed into the device and the transmission probability is computed. As expected, the separation efficiency shows a minimum when the particle radius is around 0.2 microns.

This model example illustrates applications of this type that would nominally be built using the following products:
