Hg. Chong et Tj. Overcamp, EFFECTS OF THE DIFFUSER AND OF PARTICLE INTERCEPTION ON THE PENETRATION OF A VENTURI SCRUBBER, Environmental technology, 17(1), 1996, pp. 107-111
A numerical model for an ideal venturi scrubber was developed. Predict
ions of this model indicate that there can be considerable particle co
llection in the venturi's diffuser and that interception is a signific
ant collection mechanism for particles larger than one micrometer in d
iameter. These results indicate that the ideal venturi scrubber model
is an over simplification of the processes occurring within a venturi
scrubber.
