What does “downlegs” mean in a sentence?

Thread Content

At low flow rates, liquid benzene will flow down the downlegs and displace the nitrogen, which will flow counter-currently up the same pipes toward the high-point vents; as a result, the system will be completely filled with liquid. Last edited by beileim1 on 2009-2-18 08:21]

The liquid flows downward slowly, replacing the nitrogen; at the same time, the nitrogen flows upward through the same pipe to the exhaust outlet at the higher level, so the entire device gets filled with liquid. The “downlegs” are metaphorically compared to a human’s legs; in other words, the equipment is regarded as a human being, with the pipes below serving as that person’s legs.:lol. This is for reference only

Nitrogen will flow countercurrently up the same pipes; in this context, the downlegs are the tubes through which the liquid flows downward, with the gas displaced being expelled upward in the same pipes. ++++++++++ I just didn’t like what was above; what was said there made a lot of sense. It is the process of pouring liquid through tubes. The downleg can be referred to as a “liquid descent tube”. However, the term for a downcomer has another corresponding word.

At low flow rates, the liquid benzene flows through the vertical pipe to the lower point to displace nitrogen, which then flows back up to the higher point and is discharged, thereby filling the entire system with liquid. ----------This should be a replacement operation; I think it refers to a vertical pipe.

I agree with the views expressed by those above. As for the name for this translation, I think we could draw on the concept of atmospheric legs used in vacuum distillation, and call it a liquid dropping leg. . . I’m not sure if it’s appropriate

I think it’s appropriate, but I’m not sure if there’s a more specific term.

Some English words are difficult to translate into Chinese, just as many Chinese words are difficult to translate into English. I feel like this word is exactly the same
