Regarding the definition of a pot
Thread Content
What is the definition of a reactor in the chemical industry? We know bottom-mounted reactors, reaction vessels, distillation vessels, polymerization reactors, and mixing vessels ； But the exact definition of “pot” has not been very clear ； I look forward to your advice!
Personally, I understand it as a container that can be heated; in simple terms
The Chinese character for \"pot\" refers to a type of vessel with a round bottom and no legs; it must be placed on a stove or supported by other objects in order to cook food. Its mouth is also round, and it can be used for boiling, stewing, frying, and sautéing. It can be considered the precursor to the \"pots\" used in modern times.
Reply to 3# dysysjc: Does it have the same meaning as the ‘pot’ in a boiler?
I hope for a more professional answer that is in line with the definitions used in the chemical and petrochemical industries
