Task 4 (b):
To determine the flow rate of filtrate you need to consider the cake resistance and the
constant pressure filtration equation.
dV 2A²(-AP)
dt
αμφVrotat
You can use this equation to calculate the filtrate flow rate and the volume of filtrate at each
time point during the filtration.
You will notice in this question that the filter media resistance (Rm) is neglected and so the
filtration equation ignores that term in the equation. This is in contrast to the worked example
in the lecture which includes the filter media resistance term. Typically, tutorial questions in
this class will ignore the filter media resistance.
