CALCULATION OF THE FILTRATION PROBLEM AT THE FILTER INLET

Abstract

Filtration of the suspension in a porous medium with a geometric particle capture mechanism is con-sidered. The porous medium has an initial deposit unevenly distributed across the filter. The nonlinear model of deep bed filtration suggests that the porosity and permeability of the porous medium depend on the deposit. The asymptotics of the movable boundary of the two phases is determined. The asymptotic solution of the problem is constructed and calculated near the filter inlet.
