How to deal with deflection in Lindata? In a methanol synthesis tower with a capacity of 200,000 tons per year for coal-to-gas production in Shanxi, flow deviation often occurred. The company took measures by first increasing the inlet temperature, and then reducing it once the temperature became uniform.
Lindata, air-cooled – Process gas enters the synthesis tower via the tube side, enters from the top, undergoes heat exchange in the U-tube heat exchanger, then returns to the upper part of the tower to reach the catalyst layer, with exhaust gas being released from the bottom of the tower.
In early models of Linda’s atmospheric cooling towers, flow deviation occurred due to uneven catalyst distribution; raising the inlet temperature helped prevent temperature drops, and once the reaction stabilized, this issue became less significant. Modern water-cooled towers hardly experience any flow deviation at all
