Performance characteristics of a new high capacity structured packing

Experimental and Numerical Simulation of Dry Pressure Drop in High‐Capacity Structured Packings

“…In order to reduce the pressure drop in structured packings, Hayashida et al [19] constructed a packing with internal honeycomb structures composed of straight tubes. Olujić et al [20] explored a new Montz high-capacity structured packing known as B1-250M. This packing was made of 0.1 mm thin metal sheets and provided more efficiency compared to the packings fabricated by using metal sheets with standard thickness for the same capacity.…”

Rate-based modelling and simulation of distillation columns with sandwich packings

“…However, they are available for various other packings, among others, for the packings B1-200 and B1-300. According to Oluji c et al [13], the efficiency of the packings B1-250M and B1-200 is comparable; the same is valid for the packings B1-350M and B1-300. Therefore, in this work, we use the parameters of the packings B1-200 and B1-300 for the prediction of the efficiency of the packings B1-250M and B1-350M.…”

“…The simulation results were compared with the efficiency data from the literature [13,14]. These data result from experiments with a distillation column with total reflux and the test system cyclohexane/n-heptane.…”

“…Fig. 7 shows the experimental efficiency data from Oluji c et al [13] for the packings B1-250M and B1-350M and simulation results obtained with the rate-based model. In these simulations, three different correlations for the mass transfer coefficients and for the interfacial area were applied.…”
