Advantages of having the liquid inlet port face the tank wall

What are the advantages of having the liquid inlet port face the tank wall? In my opinion, directing the liquid inlet toward the tank wall can reduce the large fluctuations in liquid level that occur when liquid is injected directly into the tank, thereby preventing inaccurate readings from the liquid level sensor.

When the liquid inlet is located at a higher position relative to the bottom of the tank, it should be angled toward the tank wall of the corrosion-resistant storage tank, so that the incoming liquid can flow down along the tank wall and thus reduce the impact on the bottom. For flammable and explosive substances, it is generally required that liquid be introduced from the bottom; and when introduction from the top is necessary, the liquid inlet pipe must reach all the way to the bottom of the tank. In the petrochemical industry, regulations require that liquid be introduced from the bottom in order to prevent accidents caused by liquid splashing when introducing it from the top.

I agree with you; the analysis is very thorough

The specific direction to proceed from should be determined based on process requirements as well as various factors such as actual installation. Once inside the tower, it is also necessary to establish relevant relationships as required. To resolve this issue, a suitable “fluid distributor” is generally used to achieve the desired fluid distribution. This question concludes from the outset the possible disadvantages, and this is not necessarily correct. It is recommended to check whether such a distributor is available in the specific setup inside the tower. For reference.
