DESIGN OF HOLLOW SPRAY SCRUBBERS FOR EVAPORATIVE GAS COOLING. PART 1. DETERMINATION OF MINIMUM POSSIBLE TEMPERATURES FOR COOLED GASES

摘要

Calculations have been performed on spray scrubbers for two purposes: firstly, to determine the limiting performance set by the complete evaporation of the irrigating liquid on the basis of the initial parameters of the gases to be cooled, and secondly, determining the optimal geometrical parameters (diameter and height). Nomograms are derived for determining the water content increment in an air-water system and the minimum possible gas temperature at the outlet in relation to the initial temperature and water content of the gases to be cooled.
