How to scale up the engineering design of gas-liquid separation tanks
Thread Content
Dear experts, I have a question: the diameter of the gas-liquid separation tank calculated according to HG20570 is quite small, but in actual design it needs to be enlarged significantly. I’m not sure what factor should be used for this enlargement
Thank you; I studied these two articles carefully. They are based primarily on experiments. I work in a design firm, and I’m currently dealing with a gas-liquid separation tank that doesn’t have any internal components. The calculated diameter for such a tank is only 450 mm, but the actual design diameter is 2600 mm, which leaves me quite confused. Is there a reference amplification factor for such devices?
Do the customers have any specific requirements regarding the residence time of the gas-liquid separator or the amount of liquid carried?
