htri calculates the required hydrostatic head for the output report of the forced-circulation reboiler

2017-07-18View Original

Thread Content

I have a question for the experts here: When using HTRI to calculate a forced-circulation vertical thermosyphon reboiler in a vacuum distillation column, the pressure at the pump outlet is provided. However, the report shows that a liquid static head of 8.6 meters is required (while the actual installation height of the reboiler on site allows for only 5.5 meters of liquid static head). Does this value in the report refer to the liquid static head necessary before the forced-circulation pump? With a forced circulation pump in place, can we ignore the issue of the hydrostatic head and focus only on ensuring that the pump does not suffer from cavitation? I would appreciate some advice from the experts here.
