Question: ( b ) A settling chamber is to be use to collect particles of 1 5 micron dia., density rho _ ( p )

(b) A settling chamber is to be use to collect particles of 15 micron dia., density \rho _(p)=2000k(g)/(m^(3)) from a stream of 10(m^(3))/(s) of standard air. The chamber is to be 1.5 m wide, 1.5m high with 9 trace including bottom. Determine the length of settling chamber required to achieve 99% efficiency. Also find length required to achieve for 99.9% efficiency. What would be the efficiency of 25 micron size particles for first length?
