Computational Fluid Dynamics Modeling
Independent CFD simulations performed by FS Dynamics compare modeled particle transport behavior in coated and uncoated porous filter media.
CT-Based Geometry Reconstruction
Three-dimensional filter geometries were reconstructed from computed tomography (CT) scan DICOM files and processed using 3D Slicer v5.6.2 for precise geometry preparation.
High-Resolution Simulation
Simulations performed by FS Dynamics using Star-CCM+ v19.02.013 (Siemens PLM Software) with over 12.7 million control volumes, ensuring numerical consistency between coated and uncoated configurations.
Multi-Parameter Analysis
The CFD model evaluated velocity field distributions, individual particle trajectory behavior, flow tortuosity characteristics, traversal time analysis, and pressure drop predictions under matched boundary conditions.
Statistical Validation
Median values were calculated for tortuosity and traversal time distributions due to non-normal distribution characteristics, with particle retention percentages based on capture-to-release ratios.
