How to simulate falling film reboilers in ASPEN distillation columns
Thread Content
It is a distillation column with a falling film reboiler at the bottom; how should the design of the bottom reboiler be determined, and how can it be simulated?
What are the specific process requirements? There are many different types of reboilers, and our chemical engineering forum also has relevant information on this topic
Could you tell me in which section you’re referring to? I can’t find it
Same question: In tower simulations, there are only two options for reboilers: kettle-type and siphon-type; the commonly used falling-film reboiler is not included. How should this be handled?
