NH3 Refrigeration design of suction line riser(s)

[virk]

Hallo!

Anybody outside there who can provide me with general
information or a weblink about designing riser(s) for liquid
ammonia transport back to separator.

Mixture of vapor and liquid must rise about 10m back to
separator. Refrigeration takes place at about -60°F. Capacity
approx. 370 Tons of Refrigeration.

Kind regards

Virk

Hi Virk,

You can find information about sizing risers for ammonia in IIAR (International Institue Ammonia Refrigeration) Piping Handbook or ASHRAE Handbook - Refrigeration.

Best regards,

Hi vgiacomini,

thanks for your answer. At least one guy who seems to be familiar with this subject. We have lots of books here but unfortunately none of these two and i am in a hurry right now. If you have these books could you fax me some pages, i would send you a chocolate

Kind regards,

Virk
