Direction of equipment outlet
Thread Content
When connecting a pipe to a device, can it be inserted from the side? Must the direction of the device’s outlet also be perpendicular to the device’s center line? Are there any standards regarding this? Thank you, everyone!

I don’t quite understand it; there seems to be a contradiction in the description of the problem Many of the reboiler return ports are inserted from the side, and the feed inlet with a distributor is also inserted from the side. There are also side tangential inlets that facilitate cyclone separation, as well as some discharge ports with a downward slope on the sides; examples include the inclined tubes used in catalytic cracking units.
In short, it is determined based on the requirements for using the materials and equipment
Look at its specific functions – it can work in parallel, vertically, or along the tangent direction of circular devices. . .
Circular devices can have an opening in the tangent direction on the side, right?
See Lao Yu’s reply on floor 2. Centrifugal separator.
Tangential, radial, or even at an angle to the axis are all acceptable; it only affects the reinforcement of the opening.
It should be designed according to actual needs. That’s how I do it always. I wonder if any expert has different opinions.
The inclination angle of the connecting pipes for process pipelines is taken into consideration; unfortunately, we are a manufacturing factory. . .
