How to determine the steam flow rate at the top of a batch reactor
Thread Content
I would like to ask fellow experts: In a batch reactor, the steam at the top of the reactor goes to a heat exchanger for condensation, and the amount of steam gradually decreases. How should the heat exchange area be calculated based on this steam flow? Should it be calculated using the maximum value or the average value? Are there any specific requirements? I appreciate your guidance, thank you!
Observe the direction of the condensation, as well as the impact on the reaction tank if the pressure prevents condensation from occurring. It is usually calculated based on the maximum amount
The heat exchange area is generally calculated based on the maximum evaporation rate.
At the highest level, it’s fine if the heat exchange area is large; however, if it’s too small, it will not perform well during operations such as startup and shutdown. . .
