Experts, please help with the inlet and outlet flow rates for an absorption tower
Thread Content
If the pressure at the inlet of the tower and the diameter of the inlet pipe are known, how can the inlet flow rate be calculated? Are there any other conditions that need to be known?
To estimate the gas flow rate based on existing production conditions, it is necessary to measure the wind speed within the known pipe diameter; the gas flow rate is then estimated using the wind speed, pipe diameter, and pressure
Generally, the gas flow rate inside the tower is calculated based on the total amount of gas passing through it. This flow rate can be determined using the designed air volume (with adjustments made for system pressure and temperature to obtain the actual flow rate under operating conditions)
If the energy value is known, the pipe diameter can be determined; can the flow rate inside the pipe be estimated from the inlet pressure?
