Is the feed inlet of the tower too close to the tower wall?

This post was last edited by sxf1028102800 on 2017-9-19 at 14:07. Is the feed inlet of the tower too small? If the feed material is dirty, won’t it easily clog the tower’s feed inlet over time? Thank you, please let an expert explain it; extra points appreciated

The diameter of the feed inlet is related to the feed rate. It is not possible to tell from the diagram whether the feed pipe uses a notch-type or a small-hole feeding mechanism, nor is it clear how close it is to the tower wall.

The feed to the tower is a single pipeline, whose inlet is located very close to the tower wall; there are no other forms of feeding

Now it’s clear; indeed, the situation you’re worried about might exist. It seems that the pipe diameter is fairly large, so the feed volume should be high, resulting in severe erosion. Additionally, no angle has been created at the feed inlet. If the medium is corrosive, fluid accumulation is likely to occur at the pipe ends over time, leading to corrosion.

The feed inlet of a plate tower should be double-overflow type, right? The feed pipe mentioned by the poster is fixed on the tower wall, close to it, but the actual feed inlet is right below.

It’s too close; the feed pressure drop is high, which can cause erosion of the equipment walls.

It will cause damage to the tower device. But I don’t have any good methods either.

The feed inlet isn’t designed this way – I forgot to make the hole; P

The end of the feed pipe should be equipped with a baffle, with the opening located directly below the center of the pipe.

There can’t be no opening right below the feed pipe, right?

You need to think from a safety perspective: if it’s tall, isn’t it easy to generate static electricity? This isn’t something to take lightly. Therefore, production is carried out while ensuring safety
