Principle of the corrugated channel of filter press plates

The corrugated channel design guides the flow of filtrate by introducing corrugated channels inside the filter press plates. The corrugated channels help reduce pressure loss and fluid resistance during fluid flow, and improve the uniformity and efficiency of fluid flow. The basic principles of this design include:
Fluid dynamics optimization: The corrugated channel uses the fluid dynamics characteristics of the corrugated shape to form a more stable and continuous flow pattern of the filtrate in the channel. The corrugated structure can effectively reduce the turbulence of fluid flow and avoid the problem of local retention or uneven distribution of liquid that may occur in traditional planar channels.
Equalization of pressure distribution: Traditional straight channels may produce local high-pressure or low-pressure areas during fluid flow, thereby affecting the discharge efficiency of the filtrate. The corrugated channel effectively disperses the pressure through its complex flow path, ensuring the uniform flow of the filtrate inside the filter plate. This uniform pressure distribution can reduce the pressure loss of the filter plate and increase the discharge rate of the filtrate.
Enhanced filtration efficiency: The corrugated channel design increases the contact area between the filtrate and the inner wall of the filter plate. This not only improves the flow efficiency of the liquid, but also improves the dehydration effect of the filter cake. The corrugated structure can reduce the residence time of the liquid inside the filter plate and quickly discharge the filtrate, thereby improving the filtration speed and efficiency.
