Conclusions
As a result of theoretical and experimental investigations of the structural characteristics of PWWMs from screens with square apertures, analytical expressions have been obtained for calculating these characteristics from production process parameters and the geometric dimensions of starting screens. The porosity of such a material is virtually independent of the number of screen layers in the pack, although, other things being equal, decreasing the number of layers increases the variance of pore sizes in the material and both the mean and maximum pore sizes. The number of screen layers affects the mean pore size mainly at N<10 and the maximum pore size at N<21.
