Estimate the diameter of packed column and percentage flooding for a system with the following properties:...

Estimate the diameter of packed column and percentage flooding for a system with the following properties:

Vapour rate 2000 m3/h

Vapour density 45kg/m3

Liquid rate 5.0 m3/min L

iquid density 475 kg/m3

Liquid viscosity 7.2 ? 10-5 Pa.s

Consider 2 in. plastic Pall rings and a pressure drop of 80 mm H2O/m packing. {Hint: Be careful with the units of the flowrates}.

column 0.6 m diameter and 6 m high is packed with 25 mm ceramic Raschig rings and used in a gas absorption process carried out at 101 KPa and 300 K. If the liquid and gas properties approximate to those of water and air (water viscosity=1 mNs/m2, air viscosity=0.02 mNs/m2) and their flowrates are 2.4 and 0.95 kg/m2s respectively. The packing properties are the following: voidage (e) is 0.71, specific surface area (S) is 190 m2/m3. Calculate the wet pressure...
