Abstract
The present study proposes a new shower cleaning system which can remove not only small particles but also environmental pollutant gases and bad-smelling components from an exhaust gas. A fundamental research was experimentally conducted on the performance of the shower cleaning system by using "Silica Sand" (particle diameter: 27-31μm) and "Fly Ash" (particle diameter: 4.8-5.7μm) as test particles. In the case of "Silica Sand" the conventional shower cleaning system removed the particles almost completely, but for fine particles like "Fly Ash" the cleaning was not attained completely, which suggests the effectiveness of the "direct contact condensation effect" proposed in the present study.
