Heat transfer temperature difference for main cooling in small air separation unit

Heat transfer temperature difference for main cooling in small air separation unit
Jun 05, 2026
Author: DEAR AST

In the condensation evaporator the liquid oxygen is heated to evaporate and the gas nitrogen is cooled and condensed. Both the liquid oxygen and the gas nitrogen are in a saturated state. If the saturation temperature of nitrogen is lower than the saturation temperature of oxygen at the same pressure, the purpose of condensing gas and nitrogen with liquid oxygen cannot be achieved. For this reason the heat transfer temperature difference in the condensing evaporator in small air separation unitmust be established by the pressure difference. Raising the pressure in the lower tower to increase the saturation temperature of the nitrogen is the only way to achieve a suitable heat transfer temperature difference between the liquid oxygen and the gas nitrogen and to achieve the purpose of condensing the gas nitrogen with liquid oxygen in small air separation unit.

In the operation of the air separation unit, the superheat of the expanded air sent to the upper column is a key parameter affecting the stability of distillation conditions and product purity. The fluctuation of superheat will directly change the gas-liquid load and mass transfer efficiency of the upper column, and then affect the distillation effect and energy consumption of the unit. If the superheat of the expanded air is too high, the gas entering the upper tower will carry a large amount of excess heat, which will significantly increase the gas phase temperature in the tower and aggravate the consumption of cooling capacity in the tower. This will lead to the decrease of reflux ratio in the distillation section of the upper column, insufficient gas-liquid two-phase contact, and poor mass transfer and heat transfer efficiency. At the same time, the increase of superheated gas will raise the rising gas flow in the tower and destroy the balance of distillation conditions, resulting

DEAR air separation adopts the "software and hardware integration" scheme to implement the energy-saving transformation of air separation. Under normal conditions, the transformation can reduce the power consumption by about 15%. The cooperation supports the EMC (energy management contract) mode. The customer does not need to invest in advance, and the two sides share the saved electricity revenue.
