Design of a Chimney Tray
Design of a Chimney Tray
(OP)
I am working on hydraulic design of mass transfer columns.
I want to know how chimney trays used for product draw are designed. I am interested in different aspects for this design and some reference procedure for the design.
Thank you,

RE: Design of a Chimney Tray
The tough part is calculating the pressure drop through the reboiler. The drop is the sum of the fluid flowing to the reboiler, the drop through the heater, and finally the drop on the two-phase flow back to the column.
Good Luck
