Calculation of the diameter at the outlet of the adsorption tower tube
Thread Content
I am performing calculations related to the pressure swing adsorption process, and I am dealing with multiple adsorption towers (a total of 5 towers, with each tower undergoing adsorption three times to equalize the pressure). How should I calculate the diameter of the inlet and outlet pipes for each adsorption tower?
If it’s not very precise, just calculate using the gas flow rates before and after adsorption along with an appropriate gas flow velocity； If pressure drop needs to be controlled, it is necessary to calculate the appropriate flow rate based on the allowable pressure drop, and then determine the pipe diameter. The relevant calculation methods specified in the petrochemical pipeline design regulations can be referred to.
Thank you, could you be more specific? Because I haven’t calculated it; is there a formula?
