Research Abstract |
Filtration technologies such as clean air and water treatment is indispensable to sustaing our modern life. The main mechanism underlying these technologies is that suspended particles are separated from suspension by filteration through a membrane with fine pores. However, the permeability gradually decreases due to an increase in pressure loss caused by an accumulated layer of suspended material, "cake", on the membrane, which is a key problem on the technology. As one of solutions for the problem, the cross-flow filtration method, where suspension in turbulent state is swept to the parallel to the menbrane, can effectively reduces the thickness of cake in the filtration process. The present work elucidates that the turbulent state can be induced via the laminar-turbulent transition via a small perturbation with spanwise vortices.
