Liquid Weeping Algorithm |
Résumé : |
Understanding the phenomenon of liquid weeping requires knowledge of the bubbling and weeping cycle. Hence, an image analysis algorithm is developed and subsequently coupled with high-speed imaging techniques to examine the different stages in the bubbling and weeping cycle automatically. The bubbling and weeping cycle is studied under various operating conditions, using the developed algorithm, coupled with high-speed imaging techniques and the pressure fluctuation measurement. The effect of orifice angle (where the orifice angle is a measure of the orifice taperness) on the liquid weeping rate is evaluated over a range of superficial orifice gas velocities and justified with the aid of the developed algorithm, coupled with high-speed imaging techniques. A gas distributor plate with negative angle orifices is recommended for improved operation of industrial bubble column reactors over the range of superficial orifice gas velocities considered in this study, because it substantially decreases the liquid weeping rate. |
