Low Efficiency Control Measures for Jet Engine Test Cells

Abstract

This report summarizes the findings of low cost, relatively low efficiency emission control measures for reduction of jet engine test cell opacity to less than 20%. The recommended cost effective opacity reduction system consists of an effective water spray system; a glass fiber mist eliminator; a medium efficiency, high velocity, throw-away type glass fiber filter media; and a reduced test cell discharge area. The report discussed the following topics: control methods, opacity, scrubbers, demisters, and filters.
