In more detail referring to accompanying drawing,, be applicable to that the tower of mass transfer and heat transfer process all uses Reference numeral 20 to represent now at first referring to Fig. 1.Tower 20 comprises vertical shell body 22, although the profile of this shell body can be other shape that comprises polygon, is generally cylindrical, and other shape also all falls within the scope of the present invention certainly.Housing 22 has any suitable diameter and height, and is made by one or more suitable rigid materials, and these materials are chemically reactives not for the fluids that exist in the tower 20 and state preferably, or are compatible with it on the contrary.
Can fluid stream be introduced tower 20 by the feeding pipe of any right quantity, these feeding pipes are positioned at along the appropriate position of the height of tower 20.Be understood that, in tower 20, can form one or more strands of vapor streams, rather than send in the tower 20 by a feeding pipe.Tower 20 also comprises the bottom stream extraction pipeline (bottom stream takeoff line) that is used for distillating from the cat head that tower 20 extracts steam product or byproduct pipeline (overhead line) and extracting liq product or byproduct usually.Various supplies and extraction pipeline and other existing tower parts commonly used, all not shown in the accompanying drawings as counter-flow duct (reflux stream line), reboiler, condenser, vapor horn tube and like, because they are actually those types commonly used, and optional for understanding the present invention.
A plurality of horizontally extending first or centrifugal contact disc 26 and second or backflow contact disc 28 alternately and vertically be spaced apart in the interior zone 24 that opens wide of tower 20.Each dish 26 and 28 all comprises horizontal-extending plate 30, and they are made of a plurality of independently panels (panel) 32 that link together by rights.The plate 30 that is used for centrifugal contact disc 26 preferably is circular substantially or is preferably polygon, octagonal as shown in Figure 2.The plate 30 of contact disc 28 of being used to reflux is preferred basic for circular, so that the shape with the tower shell 22 shown in Fig. 4 is consistent as far as possible.Each plate 30 all has many steam channels 33, and these passages make steam upwards by plate 30, so that interact with the liquid that flows through plate 30 upper surfaces.As will be discussed in more detail as follows, be configured to make vapor stream to discharge steam channel 33, can promote liquid whereby in the desired direction by plate 30 by the direction of preliminary election.In the example of centrifugal contact disc 26, steam is discharged, with tangential components of flow so that liquid rotates outwards towards the surrounding from the center of plate 30.In backflow contact disc 28, steam is preferably radially pushed liquid to center inwardly from the periphery of plate 30.
As clear illustrating like that among Fig. 2,3 and 6, each centrifugal contact disc 26 has central circular or polygonal inlet region 34 and along the outside annular downcomer 36 of the neighboring formation of plate 30.As in Fig. 4-5, being seen, each contact disc 28 that refluxes all has inlet region 38 outside, that be generally ring-type, this inlet region is positioned at the below of the annular downcomer 36 of extending from the centrifugal contact disc 26 on top and center downcomer 40, described center downcomer 40 be positioned at following centrifugal contact disc 26 inlet region 34 above.The result of this structure makes liquid outwards flow from the central inlet district 34 of uppermost centrifugal contact disc 26, radially or helical flow path flow through plate 30, and enter annular downcomer 36.Then, liquid is downward through annular downcomer 36, and is sent to annular entry 38 places of following backflow contact disc 28, radially flows to center downcomer 40 along plate 30 inwardly again.Enter the downward liquid flow of center downcomer 40 and be sent in the central inlet district 34 of following centrifugal contact disc 26.Liquid continue along above-mentioned, be used for each to the contact disc 26 that continues and 28 flow path.
Each annular downcomer 36 all has vertically extending inlet wall 42, and this inlet wall extends downwards from the neighboring of plate 30.Inlet wall 42 can be single circle, perhaps the multistage shape that also can have polygon or be made of a plurality of planar sections or curved sections.Under any circumstance, inlet wall 42 is preferred consistent with the shape of plate 30 peripheries, and inside and tower shell 22 separates preselected distance.Horizontal interval between inlet wall 42 and the tower shell 22 limits annular or the multistage inlet 44 that leads to downcomer 36.
In a similar fashion, the center downcomer 40 on each return tray 28 has inlet wall 50, and this inlet wall forms inlet 52 on the plane of plate 30, and the inlet wall slopes inwardly towards the central axis of tower 20, to limit the downward fluid passage that narrows down gradually.In order to enhance productivity and/or installation effectiveness, inlet wall 50 preferably has the shape of falling the frustoconical that is linked to each other and constituted along a plurality of flat boards that seam is connected by end and end, and exhaust outlet 54 is made of the preliminary election perpendicular separation between the lower edge of the wall 50 that enters the mouth and the following plate 30.In addition, the vertical skirt of cylinder or other structure can be extended downwards from the lower edge of inlet wall 50, and forming outlet 54 and/or to enter the mouth 52, described outlet and inlet can be made of the vertical wall of the inclined wall that has the middle part that constitutes downcomer 40 or bottom.For annular downcomer 36, also help steam to separate in the space of the workspace of the structure of center downcomer 40 on the dish 26 that increases below obtainable being used for and the formation of dynamic liquid seal.Also can adopt other downcomer arrangement that can realize these purposes, and those downcomer arrangement fall within the scope of the present invention all also.
Each centrifugal contact disc 26 can be supported by the support ring 60 that is fixed on the central support tube 62, and described central support tube is extended to the central axis of upper edge tower 20, and its lower end is supported by beam or other device.Preferably inlet wall 42 and the skirt section 46 with each annular downcomer 36 is threaded onto on the shank of bolt 56, leaves at interval and by welding or alternate manner around this shank of bolt to be fixed on the tower shell 22.Downcomer skirt 46 is also supported by a plurality of carriages of arranging along the circle spacing 58, and these carriages are fixed on the following plate 30.Except support function, carriage 58 also be used for lower edge with skirt section 46 be fixed on plate 30 and tower shell 22 at a distance of the required separation distance place.
Each return tray 28 supports by support ring 64, and described support ring is fixed on the inner surface of tower shell 22 by welding or alternate manner.Support 66 also is used for center downcomer 40 is supported on the plate 30 of bottom centrifugal pan 26, and makes downcomer outlet 54 be positioned the required separation distance place of 34 tops, inlet region on the bottom plate 30.The brace summer (not shown) also can 26 and 28 provide supplemental support to dish, these brace summers or with plate panel (tray deck panel) 32 whole formation, or be separated structures.Can expect, cooperate various shanks of bolt 56, carriage 58 and support 66 also can use support ring 60 on the stay pipe 62, so only need use a support ring 64 that is welded on the tower shell 22 to support each to coiling 26 and 28.Because the support ring 60 on the stay pipe 62 has the circumference weldment more much smaller than the circumference of the weldment on the support ring on the tower shell 22 64, so be connected on the tower shell 22, can save set-up time and expense greatly to coiling 26 and 28 single support ring 64 in order to support each by use.
As from Fig. 1 clear see, in one embodiment of the present invention, centrifugal contact disc 26 in the distance above the backflow contact disc 28 greater than the distance of backflow contact disc 28 above centrifugal contact disc 26.This structure of dish 26 and 28 provides above backflow contact disc 28 than bigger open volume above centrifugal contact disc 26, thereby can hold bigger foaming height on backflow contact disc 28.When liquid radially flows to center downcomer 40 inwardly from coiling periphery, because the narrowed width of flow channel, so bubble forms bigger height above backflow contact disc 28.The difference of perpendicular separation can change between the dish 26 and 28, to adapt to concrete application.For example, differ in each dish 26 and 28 above and below and to establish a capital the interval of adopting 18 inches, centrifugal contact disc 26 can be above backflow contact disc 28 22 inches at interval, above centrifugal contact disc 26 14 inches at interval again of backflow contact discs 28.Adopt above the backflow contact disc 28 bigger interval can and not increase in the tower in the quantity of the dish do not increase tower 20 in 26 and 28 by the prerequisite of coiling the occupied gross area under the increase capacity with raise the efficiency.
The structure that adopts different helping that steam is separated from liquid above centrifugal contact disc 26 and/or backflow contact disc 28 and help liquid to enter downcomer 36 and 40 also can improve the efficient and the increase capacity of tower 20.For example, as shown in Figure 7, one or more baffle plates 68 are arranged at one or more backflow contact discs 28 tops, cross center downcomer 40 with prevention or obstruction liquid, and provide the impact surface that helps the vapour-liquid separation.These baffle plates 68 can have different structures, for example can be the polylith vertical panel 69 that below the centrifugal contact disc 26 of topmost, is provided with, radially extends from central support tube 62, or as be presented at central centrifugal contact disc 26 belows, have the reverse taper 70 of central opening at stay pipe 62 on every side.Cone 70 can have the deflection plane or curved surface surface 72, and preferably is assembled by two or more parts, so that be installed in around the stay pipe 62.In another embodiment below the nethermost centrifugal contact disc 26 shown in Fig. 7, baffle plate 68 constitutes the independently shape of bubble collecting board (froth collector plates) 74, the downward-sloping angle of the relative liquid flow direction of this collecting board flows from the top down to reboot liquid.Plate 74 can be only to see through steam or liquid and steam both can see through or liquid or all impervious plate of steam.
Also can be by using steam channel 33 rather than utilizing conventional pressed metal of using constitutes in the disclosed the sort of dish in the patent of Kittel above-mentioned parts to improve the performance of tower 20.For example, shown in Fig. 2 and 4, steam channel 33 can be blinds grid (not shown) or valve 76, and they can be fixed, and are also movable, and definite direction is arranged, and flows through plate 30 in order to promote liquid in the desired direction.So, can make being oriented to of blinds grid on the centrifugal contact disc or valve 76 along tangentially or become a certain other angle ground discharged steam with respect to the initial radial flow direction of the liquid that leaves central inlet district 34.So tangentially promoting liquid can make liquid be helical flow path from radially departing from, such path can provide the longer holdup time, steam on described liquid and the plate 30 is interacted more fully, and help steam and fluid separation applications, also help liquid and enter annular downcomer 36.Though preferred spiral liquid flow path if blinds grid or valve 76 suitably are orientated, also can keep or obtain radially or other flow path.Also the blade that radially extends of available inclination replaces valve 76 or is used in combination with valve 76, flows in the desired direction to impel steam and liquid.Valve 76 also can be arranged on the backflow contact disc 28, is preferably directed towards to promote liquid radially.
It will be appreciated that the directional push that is provided by blinds grid in the some parts of plate 30 or valve 76 can be different from the directional push that the blinds grid that is arranged in the other parts plate 30 or valve 76 provide.For example, as shown in Figure 2, the valve 76 that is arranged on the most close inlet region 34 will run into the liquid of Radial Flow, should be directed towards approaching clean vapor stream vector (net vapor flow vector) direction radially, so that liquid does not enter and splash into valve 76 downwards.Those valves 76 that are arranged on away from inlet region 34 will run into spirality liquid stream, they should be oriented in the direction of clean tangential vapor (net tangential vapor flow).Though Fig. 2 only shows two kinds of orientations, also can adopt other orientation, and preferred other orientation in some applications.
In the type of the valve 76 that uses separately on plate 30 or be used in combination, known standing valve is VG0 and VG9 valve usually, and known movable valve is MV1 and MV9 valve usually.The valve 76 of these types utilizes the upstream leg that stops liquid to enter the broad of valve usually.Can make valve gap with respect to the plane of plate 30 angle that tilts, to prevent that liquid from entering and can promote liquid selectively or additionally with bigger orientation.If desired, the inclination angle can be with the difference in plate 30 zones difference.The blinds grid can be used in combination with valve 76, for example the blinds grid can be set in the zone of the most close inlet region 34, and valve 76 is set in all the other zones.Also can use separately or combine the use sieve aperture, the preferred sieve aperture of inclination that uses with blinds grid recited above and valve 76.
In another modification, be arranged in the center downcomer 40 or be arranged on it by the parts that will cause rotation and export 54 places, can cause liquid and when discharging the center downcomer 40 of Fig. 4, produce and rotatablely move.The parts of initiation rotation are included in a plurality of guide vanes that radially extend in the downcomer outlet 54.But guide vane plane or curved surface, and at least a portion of some blade or all extend with respect to vertical direction angledly.
At the inlet 44 of ring-type and center downcomer 36 and 40 and 52 upstream overflow plate 78 can be set respectively arbitrarily.Overflow plate 78 can have different height, and the height that preferably makes the overflow plate relevant with annular downcomer 36 is greater than the height of any overflow plate relevant with center downcomer 40.Owing to, preferably do not adopt overflow plate usually at center downcomer 40 places with the relevant negative hydraulic gradient of liquid stream on the backflow contact disc 28.
Find out that from above-mentioned the present invention can reach whole described targets and purpose fully, and show its structure intrinsic other advantage.
Be understood that some feature and auxiliary combination (subcombination) are useful, and under the situation that does not relate to further feature and auxiliary combination, can utilize these features and auxiliary combination.But this accessory rights reckons with in requiring, and therefore also falls in the protection domain of claim.
Because under the prerequisite that does not exceed the scope of the invention, the present invention can have numerous embodiments, so be understood that, the described or shown full content of accompanying drawing of specification all just illustrates, and does not have a limited significance.
