Abstract:SUMMARYTo minimize the effect of permeability variations of tipping and plug wrap paper on the degree of filter ventilation and consequently on the smoke yields, a mathematical model for the flow through a layered structure of perforated tipping paper and porous plug wrap paper was derived. The output of the model was compared to experimental data and a very good agreement was found. A statistical investigation revealed that measured permeability values of tipping and plug wrap papers are normally distributed.… Show more
