A method of controlling the cleaning process for the cleaning of textile barrier filters, for example bag filters, subsequent to dust precipitation on the filter material. The cleaning is carried out with a cleaning system (14) comprising means (16,17,18) for distributing compressed air pulses to the filter bags (4). The gas flow often shows great variations in flow, temperature and dust content, thereby giving rise to problems in the control of the cleaning process in such a manner, that neither over-cleaning nor under-cleaning occurs. For the control, the filter load v.sub.f is measured which is the ratio of the gas flow (m.sup.3 /s) and the filter area (m.sup.2), as well as the pressure drop p.sub.f over the filter material. In applications with great temperature variations of the gas, also the absolute temperature T is measured. The measuring results are processed in an electronic unit (26) for calculating the filter resistance S, which is the ratio p.sub.f /v.sub.f, possibly standardized to a reference temperature T.sub.o by multiplication with the ratio (T.sub.o /T).sup..alpha., where .alpha. is a constant with the value 0.76 at gas temperatures below 200.degree. C. Through the filter resistance S the cleaning process is controlled by acting upon the cleaning interval, the time interval between the cleaning pulses, the cleaning pressure of the cleaning pulse, or the duration thereof. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION I claim: 1.
A method of controlling the cleaning process for the cleaning of the filter material in textile barrier filters where the polluted gas is supplied to a filter chamber via a crude gas inlet and passes through the filter material mounted in the filter chamber and precipitates dust thereon, and is discharged from the filter chamber via a clean gas outlet, and the cleaning process is effected by exposing the filter material to compressed air pulses from a cleaning system controlled by a control system, comprising the steps of measuring the pressure drop p.
sub.
f over the filter material, measuring the gas flow to determine the filter load v.
sub.
f, which is the ratio between the gas flow and the filter area, computing the filter resistance S, which is the ratio between p.
sub.
f and v.
sub.
f, and comparing S with a nominal value So of filter resistance, and in response to deviation of S from So, emitting a control signal for controlling the operation of the cleaning system on the filter material.
2.
A method as defined in claim 1, including the step of measuring the absolute temperature T of the gas in relation to reference Temperature To, and correcting the measurement of the filter resistance S in response to any viscosity change of the gas.
3.
A method as defined in claim 2, wherein the control system provides the correction by multiplying the ratio p.
sub.
f /v.
sub.
f by (T.
sub.
o /T).

4.
A method according to claim 1 wherein the signal from the control system varies the pressure of the cleaning pulses.
5.
A method according to claim 1 wherein the signal from the control system varies the duration of the cleaning pulses.
6.
A method according to claim 1 wherein the cleaning process is operated in sequential cycles initiated at set time intervals and the control signal varies the set time intervals.
7.
A method according to claim 6 wherein each of the cleaning cycles comprises a series of pulses and the intervals are controlled by varying the time between the completion of the series and the start of the next cycle
