Calculation method for distributor pressure drop
Thread Content
How is the pressure drop of a filler tower distributor calculated, such as for tray-type liquid distributors, channel-type liquid distributors, and two-row blade-type gas distributors? . . . . . Seek guidance from experts
This is generally set by the manufacturer based on the distribution effects and requirements, regarding the pressure drop.
As far as I know, the pressure drop across the tray and packing can be calculated, and the spray density for the distributor can be designed; however, there is no actual method for calculating pressure drop.
It doesn’t seem to mention the pressure drop of the distributor specifically; as for the arrangement inside the tower and what requirements there are regarding pressure drop, these need to be determined based on the specific circumstances. I know a company with excellent craftsmanship – Shanghai Kefukai. You can get in touch with them and ask around.
This Ke Fu Kai you mentioned – there’s some Dr. Sui involved, and he is indeed very expert in the field of fractional distillation
Generally speaking, the pressure drop of the distributor accounts for a very small proportion of the total pressure drop in the entire tower.
The pressure drop can be estimated using the formula pressure drop = F-factor^2 (in pa). This value of pressure drop is very small; it can essentially be ignored compared to the pressure drop caused by the packing
