Calculation of tubular distributors
Thread Content
Is there any calculation software for this purpose? I found some calculation methods in the literature, but I think they aren’t very clear; the key parts aren’t explained, which makes it very difficult for me to write the code myself. So, is there any software in this area that can be shared? Thank you!
The question is too vague! What parameters are calculated by a tubular distributor? Traffic? Pressure drop? Buchon method? What is the hole size? Open area?
The question is simply how to design a tubular liquid distributor with good distribution performance. There are simple calculation methods, but they are all purely empirical. I want to use something that is based on theory. Distribution patterns, pore size, etc., are all key objectives. Thank you!
It’s possible; no software is needed. I’ve done design work before, and it’s sufficient to refer to some reference materials. For example: http://bbs.hcbbs.com/viewthread.php?tid=7226&highlight=%D2%BA%CC%E5%B7%D6%B2%BC%C6%F7. Download the materials from there and take a look at the section on \"Design of Tubular Liquid Distributors\" in Lesson 2 – I think that will give you an idea of how to carry out the design. If you want to go deeper, you can find more relevant materials for comparison; I think that will work fine.
I don’t know if those upstairs have really read the information provided; it needs to be structured in a certain way, and some important details are hidden. It’s very difficult to figure it out based on what’s written there!
I followed what was mentioned above; when doing it myself, I could simplify things a bit and adapt them as needed – there’s no need to make it too complicated. If you read it carefully from start to finish, it basically tells you all the steps and requirements. This post was last edited by harveychen on 2007-12-27 13:33]
Thank you! I’ll study it more carefully
I also need such tools very much; when the inlet diameter and flow rate are fixed, it should be possible to calculate the pressure drop, the arrangement of holes, the size of the holes, and the open area, etc.
