Maldistribution, packings, liquid pressure drop

The author experienced one troublesome case, which was also reported by Lieberman (237), where liquid overflow through the chimneys caused a severe loss of efficiency in the packed section above. The chimney tray had undersized downpipes that were not liquid-sealed either the undersizing or the lack of seal (or both) could have caused the overflow. Lieberman (237) suggests that the overflow led to entrainment and flooding, hence the loss in efficiency. However, subsequent pressure-drop measurements and other observations provided no supporting evidence for the existence of flooding, and the author believes that vapor maldistribution due to liquid overflow (guideline 14 above) caused the loss in efficiency. [Pg.109]
