Newbie seeking advice on calculating filler height
Thread Content
Our company wants to implement an energy-saving project that involves using water at 92°C to cool secondary steam at 100°C, thereby raising the water temperature to 96°C for use by other equipment. We plan to achieve this using a packed tower, with a water flow rate of 34 cubic meters per hour and a tower diameter of 800 mm. The packing material chosen is CY500 type metal wire mesh corrugated packing. We are not sure how to calculate the height of the packing; we would appreciate some guidance from those with experience in this area
The original poster had better use software for calculations; doing it by hand is exhausting. There are many discussions on the fluid dynamics calculations related to towers on the forum; you can go and look for them.
