Research abstract
Existing military engine air intake systems rely heavily on barrier media filtration elements with, or without mechanical precleaning, to achieve satisfactory particulate removal from the intake air stream. Barrier media filter elements accumulate debris removed from the air stream and, as a necessity, must be replaced at frequent intervals creating heavy service and logistics burdens for operating forces.
