Effects of the Inlet Velocity Profiles on the Prediction of Velocity Distribution inside an Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP)

In this study, the development of CFD model for the description of operation of electrostatic precipitator has been developed. The model is based on the simulation analysis whereby focused on the gas flow by time-averaged conservation equation of mass and momentum. 2D geometry model was extensivel...
