Shuttle filter study. Volume 3: Appendix

Abstract

Test data obtained from flow resistance and contaminant tolerance tests on the various porous media evaluated in the different fluids are presented in both graphical and tabular forms. Test procedures for both flow resistance and contaminant tolerance testing are presented, and the development of a system for continuously adding contaminant at a predetermined rate to a flowing fluid stream is described. Also included is a section describing the development effort of the self-indexing filter. This concept was adapted during this program for various shuttle applications.
