Air sent to the upper column for expansion

Air sent to the upper column for expansion

The gas and liquid on the upper tray are saturated, so it is better that the expanded air sent to the upper tray is also saturated, even with a small amount of liquid. However, due to the limitation of the structure of the expander, the air can not reach the saturation state at the outlet of the expander, and no liquid can be produced, otherwise the expander will have a liquid hammer accident, causing damage to the expander, so there is a certain degree of superheat in the expansion air sent to the upper column.

The air in nature is not absolutely dry, and a certain amount of gaseous water vapor is always mixed inside, which is a conventional part of air. Under normal pressure and normal temperature, water vapor is evenly dispersed in the air and will not condense into liquid water, so we cannot directly observe water. In the air separation operation, the air is first compressed by the air compressor. After the air is compressed, the volume is greatly reduced, and the density of water vapor in unit space increases sharply. At the same time, the saturated water content of air will change with the increase of pressure. Under high pressure, the upper limit of water vapor contained in air tends to be fixed. When the water vapor content exceeds the saturation value corresponding to the pressure, the air will reach the supersaturated state, which has the basis of water precipitation. The air compression process will generate a lot of heat, and the high temperature environment can temporarily improve
