Condensate Receiving Tank Design Calculation | Condensate Mound
Condensate Receiving & Condensate Flash Recovery tank design Abstract : Condensate receiving tank or condensate mound is one of the simple equipment in sugar industry and other process industries. If we provide common condensate flash recovery tank then no need to provide individual mounds for each evaporation or heating bodies like juice heaters, evaporator bodies, […]
Flash Vapour Calculation | Flash Vapour Recovery Vessel Design Calculation
Condensate flash vapour recovery system calculation with example What is Flash Vapour: The liquid suddenly passing from high pressure to low pressure condition then produces a spontaneous evaporation without any external heat energy it is called “flash” or flash vapour. The flash vapour recovery is one of the important energy conservation system in all process […]
Overall heat transfer coefficient for shell and tube heat exchanger
Fundamental Concepts of Overall Heat Transfer Coefficient (OHTC) In shell and tube type heat exchanges overall heat transfer coefficient (OHTC ) is product of the three factors mainly. They are Tube inside liquid media film coefficient , Shell side heating media film coefficient and metal wall resistance. Heat transfer is the science which deals with […]
Wetting rate | factor | in Robert, kestner & Falling Film Evaporators
Concept and formulas for Wetting number or Wetting rate or wetting factor in Evaporators Wetting rate : Sufficient wetting rate of the heating surface by liquid is extremely important for trouble free operation. Apart from the heating tube dimensions, it is very important to choose a suitable distribution device to achieve full wetting. Due to […]
Concepts in Condenser System (Vacuum Equipment)
Condenser System for vacuum creations and its types with design criteria Condenser system and vacuum equipment are common to evaporators and vacuum pans. Nearly all these vessels use direct contact condensers, where the cooling water comes into direct contact with the vapour to be condensed. Creation of Vacuum: a) In a condenser, we condense large […]
