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

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

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.

When the amount of treated air increases, the rising steam in the distillation column will increase, and the amount of liquid to be condensed in the main cooler will increase accordingly, so it has no effect on the reflux ratio in the column. The purity of oxygen and nitrogen remained unchanged in a certain range with the increase of gas volume, and the output increased proportionally with the increase of gas volume. However, with the increase of the amount of condensate in the main cooler, the heat load of the main cooler increases. When the heat transfer area is insufficient, the temperature difference of the main cooler will inevitably expand, and the pressure of the lower column will increase accordingly. At the same time, with the increase of gas velocity in the column, the amount of downflow liquid increases, and the liquid layer on the tray thickens, which increases the resistance of the tray and the pressure of the upper and lower columns. This will adversely affect the sepa
