Join this exclusive webinar hosted by Henry Z. Kister. Learn the common rules of thumb that have been useful to engineers engaged in troubleshooting distillation towers.
In almost every troubleshooting assignment, it is desirable to solve a problem as fast as possible with the least expense. Detailed analysis takes detailed study and rigorous calculations, which can delay the diagnosis and solution by several months. This is where the rules of thumb become invaluable. They can quickly direct troubleshooters to the most likely issues and divert resources away from the less likely issues. The deliverable is a quick diagnosis in a shorter time.
By the end of this webinar, you will understand:
- common rules of thumb that have been useful to engineers engaged in troubleshooting distillation towers
- rules of thumb for tray and packings flooding
- rules of thumb for downcomer maximum entrance velocity
- rules of thumb for trays and packing efficiencies
- rules of thumb for tray and packing flow regimes
- rules of thumb for tray channeling
- rules of thumb for packing distributor liquid head
- rules of thumb for tray stability factor
- rules of thumb for tower inlet and outlet velocities.
