Pleated filtration media, media packs, filter elements, and methods for filtering fluid are provided which contain three dimensional tapered flutes in the media surface, the flutes configured to improve filter performance. In certain embodiments the flutes have defined peaks that reduce masking between adjacent pleats, the flutes have ridges along their length to modify flute cross sectional geometry, and/or the flutes provide for volume asymmetry across the media.

1. A pleated filtration media pack comprising: (a) filtration media having a first set of pleat folds forming a first face of the media pack and a second set of pleat folds forming a second face of the media pack, such that the filtration media extends between the first set of pleat folds and the second set of pleat folds in a back and forth arrangement; and(b) a plurality of flutes formed in the filtration media, said flutes having a length extending between the first and second faces of the media pack;wherein at least a portion of the plurality of flutes demonstrate a taper from the first face of the media pack to the second face of the media pack; and wherein the portion of the plurality of flutes demonstrating a taper have a taper in cross sectional area and a substantially uniform height from the first face of the media pack to the second face of the media pack; and wherein each flute has a flute width D1 and a media length along each flute width D2, wherein D1 and D2 remain constant along the length of the flute; wherein at least 25% of the flutes in the pleated filtration media pack comprise at least one ridge between adjacent flute peaks and extending along at least 25% of the flute length between the first set of pleat folds and the second set of pleat folds, where each ridge is a line of intersection between differently-sloped media portions; and wherein the flute profiles define the first set of pleat folds and the second set of pleat folds. 2. The pleated filtration media pack of claim 1, wherein the portion of the plurality of flutes demonstrating a taper have a substantially uniform taper from the first face to the second face of the media pack. 3. The pleated filtration media pack of claim 1, wherein the portion of the plurality of flutes demonstrating a taper have a taper in cross sectional area and a substantially uniform width from the first face of the media pack to the second face of the media pack. 4. The pleated filtration media pack of claim 1, wherein the filtration media comprises greater than 90 percent cellulose fibers by weight of the fibers in the filtration media. 5. The pleated filtration media pack of claim 1, wherein the filtration media has a dry stretch rupture threshold of less than 10 percent. 6. A pleated filtration media pack according to claim 1, wherein the filtration media exhibits a media volume asymmetry of at least 10%. 7. A pleated filtration media pack according to claim 1, wherein the flutes exhibit a width to height aspect ratio range of 4 to 8. 8. A pleated filtration media pack according to claim 1, wherein the flutes have a media cord percentage of at least 1%. 9.

A pleated filtration media pack according to claim 10, wherein the ridges are non-parallel to one another. 12. A pleated filtration media pack comprising: (a) filtration media having a first set of pleat folds forming a first face of the media pack and a second set of pleat folds forming a second face of the media pack, such that the filtration media extends between the first set of pleat folds and the second set of pleat folds in a back and forth arrangement to define pleats defining a length extending from the first face to the second face and a width perpendicular to the length; and(b) a plurality of flutes formed in the filtration media, said flutes extending between the first and second faces of the media pack;wherein at least a portion of the plurality of flutes demonstrate a taper from the first face of the media pack to the second face of the media pack and wherein the length of the media defining each of the first set of pleat folds, each of the second set of pleat folds, and the width of each of the pleats from the first face to the second face of the media pack are equal. 13. The pleated filtration media pack of claim 12, wherein the filtration media comprises at least 90 percent cellulose fibers by weight of the fibers in the filtration media. 14. The pleated filtration media pack of claim 12, wherein the filtration media has a dry stretch rupture threshold of less than 10 percent. 15. A pleated filtration media pack according to claim 12, wherein the filtration media exhibits a media volume asymmetry of at least 10%. 16. A pleated filtration media pack according to claim 12, at least one of the plurality of flutes comprises a peak with a tip formed therein such that the tip extends beyond the general profile of the flute. 17. A pleated filtration media pack according to claim 12 wherein at least 25% of the flutes in the pleated filtration media pack comprise at least two ridges between adjacent flute peaks, wherein each ridge is a discontinuity in the curvature of the flute. 18. A pleated filtration media pack comprising: (a) filtration media having a first set of pleat folds forming a first face of the media pack and a second set of pleat folds forming a second face of the media pack, such that the filtration media extends between the first set of pleat folds and the second set of pleat folds in a back and forth arrangement; and(b) a plurality of flutes formed in the filtration media, said flutes extending between the first and second faces of the media pack;wherein at least a portion of the plurality of flutes demonstrate a taper from the first face of the media pack to the second face of the media pack, wherein less than 10 percent of the media in the media pack is masked by other media in the media pack, and wherein each flute has a flute width D1 and a media length along each flute width D2, wherein D1 and D2 remain constant along the length of the flute, and wherein the flute profiles define the first set of pleat folds and the second set of pleat folds. 19. The pleated filtration media pack of claim 18, wherein the filtration media has a dry stretch rupture threshold of less than 10 percent. 20. A pleated filtration media pack according to claim 18, wherein the filtration media exhibits a media volume asymmetry of at least 10%. 21. A pleated filtration media pack according to claim 18, wherein the filtration media exhibits a media volume asymmetry of at least 50%. 22. A pleated filtration media pack according to claim 18 wherein at least 25% of the flutes in the pleated filtration media pack comprise at least two ridges between adjacent flute peaks, wherein each ridge is a discontinuity in the curvature of the flute. 23.
