How to simulate the spray in an Aspen empty tower
Thread Content
How does Aspen simulate empty tower spraying? I would appreciate your advice! ! ! If possible, please explain in detail
How to use radfrac for empty tower spraying? No packing, no trays
How to simulate it? How to enter the theoretical plate number? How should I understand this?
Simulation is not possible; I’ve never even heard of the concept of theoretical plates in an empty tower. If you really want to simulate this process, you can first calculate the external surface area of the droplets produced by your liquid distributor as well as the spraying density, and determine the total spraying surface area. Then select a packing material with the largest diameter; you can choose any value for the volume of this packing material. Divide the total surface area calculated earlier by the volume of the packing material, and use this resulting value to replace the specific surface area parameter associated with that packing material. The results obtained in this way are more reliable than those based on the so-called theoretical plates in an empty tower
