Injection Points - Quill Orientation and Flow path Guidelines required
Injection Points - Quill Orientation and Flow path Guidelines required
(OP)
Hello,
We have a number of process injection points at our site, where an additive or water etc is injected into a process stream via a quill.
The process stream can either be vapour or liquid.
When selecting the quill orientation against the flow path (co or counter current) are there any design guidelines?
I thought that normally if it is a liquid being injected into a vapour, it is injected against the flow to allow dispersion and change of momentum (i.e not accelerate the liquid too much).
Any guidance would be appreciated.
Regards,

We have gotten way from using a quill and are using products from Komax. We use their mixers in many process lines to eliminate water hammer, concentration effect, and others.
