According to the method, firstly, a # imgabs0 # filter element with the membrane aperture of 1 micron is purchased from the market, then a series of shell upper portions and shell lower portions are subjected to 3D printing through 8228 photosensitive resin, the thickness of the shells is 4 mm, and the diameters of the shells are 70 mm, 74 mm, 78 mm, 82 mm, 86 mm and 90 mm respectively. The middle of the shell is fastened through a sealing ring and a hoop. An externally-rotating NPT threaded connector is arranged in the lower portion of the shell. Meanwhile, a spiral piece at the bottom is subjected to 3D printing. The spiral piece is matched with an external rotation NPT threaded connector arranged on the lower portion of the shell and can be pasted to the tail of a purchased product through hot melt adhesive. The sizes of the external rotation NPT threaded connector and the spiral piece are fixed. Flow tests under different pressures are carried out by using a bag type filter formed by combining purchased filter elements and shells with different diameters.

The size of the externally rotating NPT threaded interface and the spiral part are fixed.

[0006] Use the purchased filter element and capsule filters with different shell diameters to test the flow rate under different pressures. Draw a curve based on the gap between the shell and the filter element (shell inner diameter minus filter element outer diameter divided by 2) and the flow rate under different pressures. Determine the optimal shell diameter. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
