How are the distance from the first tray of the distillation column to the top of the column, and the distance from the last tray to the bottom of the column determined?

There’s nothing significant about this question; I’m not sure what you mean by top and bottom, lol! ! ! I can only say that the lowest tray is generally about 500 units away from the inlet pipe, while the upper trays are about 200 units away from the reflux pipe or feed pipe.

It’s the two ends of the tower, the outlets where the products come out

His top is the distance from the first tray to the top! The bottom refers to the distance from the last tray to the bottom! It’s described in another post! PS: OP, please describe the question a bit more clearly. I’m not the only one who has this doubt, right? Hehe! A clear description makes it easier to solve! :lol

Hmm, I see. I haven’t done the internal components of the tower yet; I’ll make an estimate now by calculating the height of the tower

Once it’s designed, I will produce and manufacture the trays, internal components, and packing for you; my contact information includes these details

Well, then help me solve this problem. Design it as quickly as possible, hehe
Reply #82012-12-03
That’s easy. Give me the data and I’ll help you design it

The tower height is determined by various factors such as the process and the packing; different processes result in different tower heights

Some towers have more than just trays, so it’s difficult to define the top and bottom in such cases. There is a certain liquid level in the bottom of the tower; this height is important. The size of the inlet pipe also plays a role, and there are many factors related to the space above the first tray – for example, you might install a demister or have a certain distance for gas buffering. So there are numerous factors to consider in total.
