Air separation equipmentThe medium flow integrator is used together with the flow meter and accumulates the total amount of fluid flowing through the pipeline within a certain period of time. The usage of the integrator is as follows:
1) calculate the integral constant K. The meaning of K is the traffic value represented by each word (unit count) of the integrator.
K=qv,max/R
In the formula, qv, max -- the maximum scale of the flow meter matched with the integrator;
R -- when the input flow is qv, max, the number of words passed by the integrator within 1 hour is called integrator constant.
2) calculate the traffic. In a certain time interval, the difference of two reading times of the integrator multiplies the integral constant K, which is the total flow during this period of time. Use formula to express:
qv=(R2-R1)K
K in the formula -- integral constant:
R1 -- the first reading of the integrator;
R2 -- second reading of integrator.
For example, when the maximum scale of the flow meter used by the product oxygen flow integrator of 6000m3/h oxygen generator is 8000m3/h, the constant R of the integrator is selected to be 400. I walked 2440 words within 8 hours. Then the integral constant is: K = 8000/400 = 20m3/word.
The total output of oxygen within 8 hours is:
Qv=2440×20=48800m3
The average oxygen production per 1 H is:
qv=48800/8=6100m3/h

The non-power consuming option for liquid air separation plants can be used for full liquid air separation plants,where the produced liquid is sold off. This approach is currently available for most LNG receiving stations. For air separation units with a large cold capacity, the liquid air can be pressurised to 6baA in a vacuum storage tank, and then heat exchanged through a heat exchanger, instead of the air compressor, directly into the cold box for distillation. At the same time in the cold b...

1. Before connecting the pipe orifice of each container, clean white cloth shall be used to tie the orifice to prevent grease and dirt from entering. 2. When welding in the cold box and in the condensing evaporator, it is strictly forbidden for flame or arc to touch the surface of vessels and pipes. 3. The containers, valves, pipes and corresponding supports in the cold box, the surface of the cold box and the foundation surface shall not be stained with grease after installation, otherwise, degreasing treatment shall be carried out.
