Dear All,

I am trying to model perforated plate of 3mm thickness used in electrostatic precipitator. I know how to define normal loss coefficient(in the direction of flow) as I know percentage opening. But I am confused about transverse (perpendicular to the flow) loss coefficient.

CFX help says multiplier of 10 should be used. However my supervisor suggests 0.01 multiplier. I dont know what value should be used & why?

Can anybody help me please?

Thank you in advance.
