Is there a formula to preliminarily determine whether to use a plate tower or a packed tower?

Is there a formula that can be used to preliminarily determine whether to use a plate tower or a packed tower? I’ve heard before that the liquid-to-gas ratio can be used for this purpose, but I’m not aware of the specific formula or the reasoning behind it. Does anyone among you know this?

If it is a preliminary assessment, the original poster can take a look at the advantages and disadvantages of packed towers and plate towers, as well as their conditions of use. The calculation of specific formulas is generally done using fluid dynamics; it would be better for such towers.

Thank you, you’re right. I recently read \"Modern Tower Technology\"; it covers the topic quite comprehensively, and now I understand it.
