Abstract
In paper machine, to make paper web by drainaging water component from pulp and filler suspension, a series of the hydrofoils are mounted under the wire of web forming section. A simple model to simulate this sheet forming section is developed. In this paper, after estimate the drainage resistance coefficients of the wire fabric and the drainaged pulp mat by using constan pressure filtration test data, calculated some simulation results of a sheet formation process of drainage flow, slurry consistency and pulp mat thickness profiles which is piled up on the wire part using this process model and those estimated coeffients.
