A FRACTAL MODEL FOR PRESSURE DROP THROUGH A CIGARETTE FILTER
ABSTRACT
A fractal model for pressure drop through a cigarette filter is suggested, the fractal dimensions of both a single fiber and the filter's cross-sections are calculated, which are two main factors affecting the pressure drop. The two-scale transform is made to convert the fractal derivative model on a smaller scale to an approximate continuous model on a larger scale, so that the model can be easily solved. An optimal filter structure is suggested for minimal pressure drop.
