Can a packed tower directly replace a plate tower?

This post was last edited by wanghy811207 on 2010-3-31 20:32. I would like to ask everyone: in the simulations for Pro 2, can a plate tower be used directly as a substitute for a packed tower? If possible, how can it be converted into the parameters of a packed tower?

By dividing the packing height by its equivalent plate height, it is possible to calculate how many theoretical plates this section is equivalent to. This value can be used to replace the filler for simulation.

Specific systems need to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis; you can perform calculations using a computer, but the actual situation may not turn out that way. Your question is too general

In Pro2, calculations are originally performed using plate columns, and there are dedicated conversion settings in the column parameters; however, this depends on the specific packing used.

I think the answer on the second floor is better!

In the simulation of the proii calculation process, there is no distinction between packed towers and plate towers; it is the concept of theoretical plates that applies in such cases. The distinction is only made during hydraulic calculations, and it’s quite easy to make those adjustments

I agree with the person above; it’s the concept of a theoretical plate, and the distinction is made only during hydraulic calculations

Can we convert the equivalent plate height of the tray to the total packing volume? It’s just my personal opinion~ Please point out any mistakes if there are any
