For the liquid-phase feed inlet of a storage tank or reactor, should the pipe extend inward against the wall? ? ?

Thread Content

Good afternoon, colleagues and seniors. I have two questions: 1. For the liquid-phase feed inlet of storage tanks or reaction vessels, when the pipe extends inward toward the wall and the liquid flows down along the wall as it enters the tank, what is the purpose of such a feeding method? Can’t we go in straight? Do I have to stick it in a bit? 2. What are the considerations when creating pressure tapping ports (very small, usually G1/4\") on a reactor for double-end face mechanical seals? What other issues will it affect? Also, can I connect it directly to the upward section of the kettle pipe fitting?

It is said to be able to reduce the amount of static electricity generated.

Does the reactor have stirring? It’s also necessary to figure out whether there are any special requirements related to the manufacturing process

There is such a claim, but logically, it is materials that are non-conductive on the inside, like glass-lined reactors, that pose a risk of static electricity; with stainless steel, any static electricity doesn’t dissipate immediately! ! ! ! Also, what kind of adhesion to the surface is needed to truly prevent static electricity? In some designs, the pipe bends inside the device and faces the inner wall of the device, while in other designs it makes two bends after entering, with the pipe ending up parallel to the wall surface ! ! Which of the two is effective?,? How can the principle be explained? I hope you can reply when you have time; thank you very much!

Some have agitators, and one needs to avoid them; those with internal coils require avoiding those internal coils as well.

It extends only a short distance – it’s not long enough to reach the mixing area or the inner coils; moreover, storage tanks don’t have such things anyway!

Some storage tanks use radar to measure the liquid level, and it is necessary to avoid fluctuations in the liquid surface.

None of these are problems; the tube extends from the inlet and then bends toward the inner wall of the equipment, and it’s usually quite short, so it certainly doesn’t touch any of the things mentioned above. What I’m asking about is which type of attachment to the wall is more reasonable! ! !

Which of these two forms is better? What is the reason again! ! ! {:1_90:}

I remember that the openings of these inserted tubes are beveled; one function of this design is to prevent static electricity, and the other function is to prevent high-speed fluids from eroding the walls of the tank. The two insertion methods shown in the diagram are likely related to the viscosity of the material and its flow rate~

Oh, your answer seems more reliable, but could you explain the principle in detail? Sorry about the trouble, thanks
