Gas Condensation Cooling and Liquid Heating Efficiency in a Turbulent Bubbling Layer on a Tray

  • Published:
Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

A simplified and a numerical mathematical models of gas cooling and water heating in a thin turbulent bubbling layer on a tray with cross-phase flow are presented. The thermal efficiency of gas cooling is found using the ideal displacement model, and the temperature profile in the liquid phase is found from the solution of a cell model or a two-dimensional differential equation of convective heat exchange with an interfacial heat source. Examples of calculating the efficiency of water cooling of gas with different humidity on sieve and valve trays are given. The results of calculations of the thermal efficiency of gas cooling depending on the height of the gas–liquid layer, as well as on the gas velocity in the column are compared with known experimental data. Conclusions are drawn about the adequacy of the mathematical model and of the developed algorithm for calculating the heat and mass transfer characteristics of the bubbling layer. Comparative characteristics of the thermal efficiency of sieve and valve trays are given depending on the gas velocity and different heights of the liquid column. The influence of the variable mass of valves along the length of the tray on the increase in thermal efficiency is shown. Conclusions are drawn on the most efficient designs and modes of operation of bubbling trays.
