Issues with the orifice plate from the boiler to the flash tank
Thread Content
After being heated in the DaoSheng furnace, the heat transfer oil goes to the flash tank and then to the end users. There is a orifice plate on the pipeline before it enters the flash tank to control the flow rate. What is the specific function of this orifice plate? What principle is being used? Is it okay without this orifice plate? Thank you! !

The main function of this flow control orifice plate is to reduce pressure, so that the liquid after throttling and pressure reduction can enter the flash tank for better flash separation. To determine whether this orifice plate can be removed, factors such as the pressures before and after the orifice plate need to be considered.
Mm! ! The pressure difference before and after the orifice plate is also a parameter that needs to be taken into consideration. Theoretically, there is liquid in front of the orifice plate; after the pressure drops due to the orifice plate, the boiling point of the liquid also drops, leading to instantaneous vaporization. Controlling the flow rate of the liquid and the amount of vaporization depends on the selection of the orifice plate, and this requires calculations by a design institute! !
