Summary

A theoretical model for the coupled transport mechanisms of diffusion, convection and thermophoresis was developed to describe the particle deposition onto a continuously moving wavy surface. The numerical results reveal that the mean deposition effect of the wavy plate is greater than of a flat plate and more significant with the wavy amplitude increasing, and that the increasing rate is nearly equal to the value obtained by dividing the additional surface area of the wavy plate compared to the flat plate by 2.4 times the flat plate area.
