Nanofiber Media Performance in Application to Motor Vehicle Air Filtration
The function of air filtration systems in motor vehicles is to improve air quality and cleanliness in car interior, control the respirable particle concentration in the operator’s cabin, and reduce the dust concentration in the engine intake air to an acceptable level. In these applications, limited space is available for the air filtration systems. Therefore, filters are designed in smaller packages, resulting in higher aerosol velocities through the filters. Such high aerosol velocities may cause dust reentrainment leading to an increase in the amount of dust penetrating the filter. Moreover, motor vehicle environments are extremely varied and these environmental and operational conditions influence filter performance.

Recent Development in Heavy Duty Engine Air Filtration and the Role of Nanofiber Filter Media
The development of an engine air filter is based on filter performance requirements, vehicle’s operational environment, available space, filter media properties, and production technology. The design process includes analyses of theoretical and empirical models describing filter media performance and aerosol flow in filter housings and through filter elements. Filter media are carefully selected based upon these models and simplified laboratory tests. The filter element design is evaluated in great detail through a series of laboratory and field experiments.

Nanofiber technology, i.e., the fabrication of very small fibers typically having a diameter of less than 1 micron, has been known and practiced for many years. This report highlights the drawbacks of the electrospinning process as compared to a new nanofiber coating process. Further discussed are the advantages of using a nanofiber coating in filtration applications to improve depth filtration and pulse-cleaning ability. Introduced here is a next-generation nanofiber technology specifically designed to enhance filtration media.

This paper discusses the use of HEPA filtration technologies to reduce fouling of compressor blades and consequential power loss. The compressor of a gas turbine consumes a significant amount of energy during operation; consequently, the efficiency of the compressor is very important to maintain optimum performance and has a huge impact on the machine thermal efficiency, power output and its long term component health.
