Abstract

The deposition of aerosols with gravity in a vertical channel from the inlet to a distance of 50 channel widths was investigated numerically for developing, fully developed, and uniform laminar flows. The relative importance of sedimetation as compared to Brownian diffusion was determined by the parameter σ = vgh/D where vg is the settling velocity, h is half the channel width and D the particle diffusivity. A finite difference solution was found for the concentration distribution whereby various values of σ are presented for the penetration over the axial distance. © 1980.
