Abstract. The Laboratory for Air Quality Control at the Faculty of Occupational Safety in Niš in cooperation with the company Eco Engineering investigated and designed prototypes of charcoal cartridge filters in special designed PVC housing. In order to obtain comprehensive and valid investigation results, the authors carried out a number of field tests as well as numerical simulations and analyses of operating parameters and characteristics of several adsorption air purifier prototypes in an original experimental setup. The aim of this paper is to present simulation results of static (stress and strain, including thermal effect) analyses of an industrials adsorption filter prototype. The simulation and visualization of the results was done by means of a SW SimulationXpress and SW simulation design study modules from the Solid Works software package [7].
Key Words: adsorption filter prototype, numerical simulation, static analyses

NUMERIČKA STATIČKA ANALIZA PATRONE PROTOTIPA ADSORPCIONOG FILTERA VAZDUHA
Laboratorija za upravljanje kvalitetom vazduha na Fakultetu zaštite na radu u Nišu u saradnji sa preduzećem Eco Engineering ispitivala je i izradila nekoliko prototipova adsorpcionih filtara sa aktivnim ugljem smeštenim u posebno projektovanom PVC kućištu. U cilju dobijanja sveobuhvatnih i validnih rezultata istraživanja autori su sproveli brojna eksperimentalna istraživanja kao i numeričke simulacije i analize radnih parametera i karakterisitika nekoliko prototipova adsorpcionih prečistača prečistača vazduha na originalnoj eksperimentalnoj aparaturi. Suština ovog rada je da prezentuje rezultate numeričkih simulacija opterećenja i statičke analize prototipa kućišta industrijskog adsorpcionog filtera vazduha. Simulacija i prikaz rezultata rada urađeni su korišćenjem SW modula SimulationXpress i SW Simulation design study u softwerskom paketu Solid Works.
Ključne reči: prototip adsorpcionog filtra, numerička simulacija, statička analiza
