Assuming complete solidification with a small degree of supercooling: 1. The reflux tank is located below the condenser; it is a balance tube, and the flow rate of gas is very low, around 2-3 inches squared. The reflux tank is located above the condenser; it is a thermal bypass pipe that requires gas flow, and it is equipped with a pressure control valve. The pipe diameter is selected to be 0.3 times that of the gas volume at the top of the tower.
