The height issue of the separation chamber in the evaporator
Thread Content
May I ask the experts here. In the separation chamber of the evaporator, the amount of steam that evaporates and the evaporation temperature are known. I set the speed of the steam at 1–4 m/s (I’m not sure if this value is reasonable), and with this it’s possible to determine the diameter of the separation chamber. But how do you determine its height? Sometimes I follow the ratio given in the books, which is H:D = 2, but that doesn’t work in practice. So I’d like to discuss with everyone here how the steam velocity in the separation chamber, as well as the height, are determined in a reasonable manner
Under normal circumstances, as long as the material does not experience flooding, a height-to-diameter ratio of 2 is sufficient. The air velocity you selected is also acceptable; the diameter of the separation chamber is determined based on the volume of steam at the operating temperature. The poster could consider using lower-level control for the liquid level, or installing packing and baffles. Please give me your guidance
:Learn *the handshake by the way
Study*study*! What does the original poster do for work?
The steam speed should be below 1 m/s
Could the original poster post a photo of the evaporator and also provide some basic explanations on it? {:1_90:}:P
Should I set the steam speed to 1-4 m/s? So high?
Is this flow rate still high? ~~Hehe~~
