Converter temperature
Thread Content
Dear sea friends, what are your device types, conversion heat exchange processes, inlet air concentration, and the inlet and outlet temperatures at each stage? Are the measurement points above and below the catalyst layer, or in the inlet and outlet pipes of the converter? Overall temperature rise and temperature rise per unit gas concentration?
It is best to have 3–4 temperature points at the top and bottom of the conversion section, respectively, with one temperature point each on the inlet and outlet pipes; this helps in determining the airflow distribution within the bed.
The idea is good, but once the number of measurement points increases, everything from the measurement equipment to the DCS cards will also increase in number
Many users’ acid production devices have too few transition temperature points, making it difficult to diagnose problems.
Each catalyst layer is equipped with one temperature sensor at the top, middle, and bottom; these sensors are installed symmetrically along the converter body, and there are also temperature sensors on the inlet and outlet pipes. . To record and determine the driving conditions and catalyst temperature, the temperature in the middle of the catalyst layer is primarily used as a reference. . .
No temperature measurement points were seen in the catalyst layer
From a practical standpoint, the method used on the second floor is effective; it’s just that the cost is higher, and it’s likely that many people won’t use it.
It is best to have two to three temperature measurement points in the same plane, arranged symmetrically or at 120-degree angles, which facilitates a better assessment of gas emission
