For fiber filter, < 0.1For woven filter, ~ 0.3
Do filters function simply as sieves (to collect particles larger than the sieve spacing)?

Frequency Clean a compartment at a time,sequencing 1 compartmentafter another; continuous orinitiated by a max.-pressure-drop switch
Motion Gentle collapse of bag(concave inward) upondeflation; slowly repressurize acompartment after completionof a backflush
Mode Off streamDuration 1-2 min, incl. valve opening,
closing & dust settling periods;reverse-air flow itself normally10-30 s
Bag diameter 8, 12 inch; length 22, 30 ftBag tension 50-75 lb
Reverse-Air Cleaning Parameters
Cleaning dust on baghouse walls by traditional sledge-hammering
Pros and Cons?
Aerosol & Particulate Research Lab 809/22/2008
Pulse-Jet Frequency A row of bags at a time; sequenced 1 row after another; can sequence such that no adjacent rows clean one after another; initiation of cleaning can be triggered by max-pressure-drop switch or may be continuous
Motion Shock wave passes down bag; bag distends from cage momentarily
Mode On-stream; in difficult-to-clean applications such as coal-fired boilers, off-stream compartment cleaning being studied
Duration Compressed air (100 psi) pulse duration 0.1 s; bag row effectively off-line
Bag diameter
5-6 in
How can the blown-away particles by the on-line cleaning process be collected? Felted fabric or woven fabric?

If thicker fabric is needed to sustain the high force, is its operating cost higher?

Ex. Calculate the max pressure drop that must be supplied for the following baghouse for a filtration time of 60 minutes: K1 = 1 inch H2O-min/ft, K2 = 0.003 inch H2O-min-ft/grain, tc = 4 min, 5 compartments, L = 10 grain/ft3, Q = 40000 ft3/min, Ac = 4000 ft2/compartment.
