In this work, we conducted a study to identify the effective thickness of the porous filter. Initial models of porous structures with cell diameters of 6 mm and 4 mm and a thickness of 10 mm to 110 mm with a porosity of 0.7 were created. We compared porous structures with each other in terms of efficiency, pressure drop, and filter quality factor. It was found that the particle deposition efficiency and the filter quality factor practically do not change when the thickness of the filter medium is 90 mm for the case with a 6 mm cell diameter and 70 mm for the case of 4 mm cell diameter. Also, if we take the results at which the efficiency is quite high, then we can use porous structures with a thickness of 50 mm in the case of a 6 mm cell diameter and 20 mm in the case of a 4 mm cell diameter.
