How is the minimum flow rate for the furnace tubes in a delayed coking heater calculated? The specification of our furnace tubes is φ127×12; what is the minimum flow rate for these tubes?
The minimum flow rate for the furnace tubes is generally a value provided by the design team; it is likely related to the designed minimum flow velocity within the furnace tubes, or it serves to prevent coking. The furnace tube specification is φ127, and the minimum flow rate should be 25 tons per hour in one direction.
The design institute needs to provide the data; we only have empirical data
