Seeking advice from experts on solving simulation problems
Thread Content
I would like to ask the experienced experts here: When using Aspen’s radFrace module to simulate an existing absorption tower, and knowing the type of packing as well as its height, how should the number of trays be determined when defining the module? I’m in a rush with my graduation project; please, someone experienced can help me! The younger sister offers her regards!
It seems that RadFrac cannot calculate the mass transfer equation, so the plate height cannot be determined from the type of packing. The plate height must be looked up in the literature or determined through experiments, before the theoretical number of plates can be calculated. I’m a beginner too; I’m not sure if my understanding is correct
The number of theoretical plates should be determined based on the height of the packing and the efficiency of the empirical plate, and then the absorption tower can be simulated using Radfrac.
Well, the number of theoretical plates can be estimated based on the plate height; you can consult some manuals related to packing and then carry out simulations.:)
