Setting of tower efficiency

Thread Content

When simulating distillation separation in a column, are there any best practices regarding the setting of \"Efficiencies\", and what are the consequences of not setting it?

The efficiency of sieve plate towers is generally in the range of 0.5–0.8, with the default value for Aspen being 0.65. If the plate efficiency is not considered, what is calculated is the number of theoretical plates.

It is recommended to calculate based on theoretical plates; the plate efficiency of each column varies, and it seems that setting a specific plate efficiency does not lead to good convergence.
