Modernization of a High-Performance Electrostatic Precipitator

  • INDUSTRIAL ECOLOGY
  • Published:
Chemical and Petroleum Engineering Aims and scope

The article presents the results of studies of the flow patterns in an electrostatic precipitator using computer modeling systems. Significant flow inhomogeneities observed in the existing pattern are shown to result in a decrease in the efficiency of dust collection. Recommendations are proposed for the modernization of the inlet and outlet gas ducts in order to equalize the volumetric flow density in the operating area.
