Mechanism for clogging of microchannels.
We investigate clogging of microchannels at the single-pore level using microfluidic devices as model porous media. The process of clogging is studied at low volume fractions and high flow rates, a technologically important regime. We show that clogging is independent of particle flow rate and volume fraction, indicating that collective effects do not play an important role. Instead, the averag...
متن کاملClogging in Continuous Casting Nozzles
Nozzle clogging is a serious productivity and quality problem in continuous casting. This work reviews the causes, effects, and solutions to clogging in continuous casting nozzles. The results of a one-dimensional, steady state analysis of the heat loss from the molten steel stream through the nozzle wall are discussed. The analyses show that steel may freeze within the clog matrix for a relati...
متن کاملGradient clogging in depth filtration
We investigate clogging in depth filtration, in which a dirty fluid is ‘‘cleaned’’ by the trapping of dirt particles within the pore space during flow through a porous medium. This leads to a self-generated gradient percolation process that exhibits a power-law distribution for the density of trapped particles at downstream distance x from the input. To achieve a nonpathological clogging ~perco...
متن کاملClogging time of a filter.
We study the time until a filter becomes clogged due to the trapping of suspended particles as they pass through a porous medium. This trapping progressively impedes and eventually stops the flow of the carrier fluid. We develop a simple description for the pore geometry and the motion of the suspended particles which, together with extreme-value statistics, predicts that the distribution of ti...
متن کاملRiverbed Clogging and Sustainability of Riverbank Filtration
Clogging refers to a reduction of riverbed hydraulic conductivity. Due to difficulties in determining the thickness of the clogging layer, the leakage coefficient (L) is introduced and used to quantify the recoverable portion of bank filtrate. L was determined at several riverbank filtration (RBF) sites in field tests and using an analytical solution. Results were compared with data from simila...
