Civan's (1998b) results have similar trends, but different values than the results of Corapcioglu and Abboud (1990) and Abboud (1993), because of the simplifying assumptions involved in their calculations, such as incom- pressible cake and constant cake porosity and the use of the same rates of deposition for small and all (large plus small) particles over the progressing cake surface. Also, the average porosity of the filter cake can vary significantly in actual cases as described by Tien et al. (1997). Next, Civan (1998b) obtained the numerical solution for the constant pres- sure drive filtration. Corapcioglu and Abboud (1990) and Abboud (1993) did not present any results for this case. The flow rate is allowed to vary according to Eqs. 12-129 and 12-119 for the radial and linear cases, respectively. In Figures 12-17 through 12-21, Civan's (1998b) results for the linear and radial cases are compared. The results presented in Figures 12-12 through 12-21 indicate that fine particle invasion into the filter plays an important role.

Comparison of the filtrate volume for linear and radial constant pressure filtration (Civan, R, 1998b; reprinted by permission of the AlChE, ©1998 AlChE. All rights reserved). (text continued from page 310) filtration results are more pronounced and the cake thickness and filtrate volume are less for the constant pressure filtration. Tien et al. (1997) have solved their partial differential model numerically using a ready-made Fortran subroutine for linear filtration at static condition and reported numerical solutions along the filter cake only at the 100- and 1000-seconds times. Their model generates numerical solutions over the thickness of the filter cake, whereas, Civan's (1998b, 1999b) models calculate the thickness-averaged values. Therefore, Civan averaged the profiles predicted by Tien et al. (1997) over the cake thick- ness and used for comparison with the solutions obtained with the thickness-averaged filter cake model. Because Tien et al. (1997) reported numerical solutions at only two time instances, this resulted in only two discrete values. Civan generated the numerical solutions with the linear filtration model using the data identified as Data II in Table 12-2 for constant rate and constant pressure filtrations. As can be seen by Civan's (1998b) results presented in Figures 12-22 through 12-25, his ordinary differential model can closely reproduce the results of the Tien et al.
