Modelling Sieve Tray Hydraulics Using Computational Fluid Dynamics
The ability of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to model the complex two-phase hydrodynamics of sieve trays is examined. The key to a proper description of the flow is the estimation of the momentum exchange, or drag, coefficient between the gas and liquid phases. In the absence of sound theoretical models, empirical correlations for the average gas fraction on the tray, such as those of Benn...
متن کاملHydrodynamics of Sieve Tray Distillation Column Using CFD Simulation
Sieve trays are widely used in the gas- liquid contactors such as distillation and absorption towers. In this article, a three-dimensional, two phase CFD model using Euler-Euler framework was developed to simulate a distillation tower with two sieve trays. Hydrodynamic simulation of air and water system in different rates of gas phase was carried out and velocity distribution parameters, clear ...
متن کاملMass-Transfer Efficiency of a Large-Scale Sieve Tray Extractor
The mass transfer efficiency and phase flow capacity of a 42.5-cm-diameter (i.d.1 sieve tray extractor has been investigated. The extraction of acetone from water with toluene was chosen because of the large amount of data for comparison with the performance of other devices, and particularly because of available data for a smaller sieve tray extractor tested in the same laboratory. For capacit...

متن کاملSimulation of the Effect of Centrifugation on Membrane Efficiency by Using Computational Fluid Dynamics During the Clarification of Pomegranate Juice
Background and Objectives: Pomegranate juice is prone to turbidity, which makes it hard to preserve and concentrate. Microfiltration is one of the membrane processes that can be used to reduce its turbidity, but, it is prone to membrane fouling. Pretreatment is considered the most effective way to reduce membrane fouling. Materials and Methods: This study simulated the effect of centrifugation...
