Calculation of sleeve-shaped filter elements made of the MR material

The article deals with the calculation of the characteristics of the thin-walled sleeve-type filter elements defined structural properties of the MR material. Existing results on the structural, filter, consumables and hydrodynamic characteristics of wire materials, the impact of their lifetime are fragmented and not linked to the calculation analytically closed form with the structural and technological parameters of the filter elements of the MR material. In the present paper we solve the problem of creating the calculation of the filter elements of the MR material with the specified filtering and hydrodynamic characteristics of the subject to the restrictions on the choice of dimensions and duration of use of the filter as a whole. The solutions of the fundamental problems to determine the structural and hydrodynamic characteristics of the MR material. The paper determines the possibility of creating a filter element, based on a given flow to ensure its performance and service life. We propose an algorithm for calculating the basic characteristics of the filter elements. It includes the solution of the system, and together with them the use of recommendations for selecting parameters of the structure and geometry of the MR material filter elements to ensure their desired filtering and hydrodynamic characteristics. This lets the rational parameters of the material structure with geometric MR material, filter and hydrodynamic characteristics of the filter elements. Such a generalized approach to the calculation of flow characteristics also provides an opportunity to take into account the life of the filter element. The use of the results is essential in the practice of creating high-performance filters based on thin-walled structures rational filter elements of bush type of woven wire MR material.
