- Question
Assuming the laminar flow across the filter, the rate of filtration (dVf/dt) can be expressed as a function of pressure drop Dp by the modified D'Arcy's equation as (where A is the area of filtering surface, K is the D'Arcy's filter cake permeability and L is the thickness of the filter cake)
Options- A. (1/A) dVf/dt = ?p/?(L/K)
- B. dVf/dt = (1/A)?p/?(L/K)
- C. (1/A) dVf/dt = ?p/? LK
- D. dVf/dt = (1/A)?p/? LK
- Correct Answer
- (1/A) dVf/dt = ?p/?(L/K)
