Effect of Packed Height on Liquid Phase H.T.U. for Packed Columns

The Effect of Maldistribution on Separation in Packed Distillation Columns

For a packed bed in a distillation column, fmax is the maximum fractional liquid maldistribution that can be tolerated in a parallel column model whilst still being able to achieve the design separation. It was previously shown that fmax can be easily calculated from a conventional column simulation output and it is a measure of the sensitivity of a packed bed to maldistribution. In this paper,...

simulation of packed columns for multicomponent adsorption

the dynamics of multicomponent adsorption in a fixed bed adsorber is examined numerically. the dynamic model of adsorption in the packed column included axial dispersion and variable space velocity along the bed for the multicomponent adsorption adsorption the pore fluid and the solid phase are in equilibrium with a nonlinear isotherm. the numerical solution is based upon the modified lax-wendr...

Prediction of Mean Drop Size in Pulsed Packed Extraction Columns

A Numerical Case Study of Packed Columns

This paper presents results concerning the validation of a recently developed packing algorithm. The basic ethos of this algorithm, known as DigiPac, is to use threedimensional methods to digitise particle shapes, and to use this digital information directly in computations of how particles pack together without further conversion or the need for modelling. A variety of simulations of packed co...
