Deep Dive Virtual Workshop 6. Filtration Analysis - 3. Filtration Simulations
When the CT image of filter material has sufficient resolution and is segmented well, we can simulate flow through filtration materials to determine filter efficiency and to analyze filter clogging and lifetime. In this episode, we will investigate how we can run these simulations.
In this workshop, you will learn:
- How to simulate the filtration process for filter media
- How to track particles during filtration simulations
- How to examine filter efficiency and filter lifetime
