Experimental Study and Numerical Simulation of a Venturi Distributor

A Venturi distributor was designed according to the principle of Venturi tube.In order to make the liquid flow distribution more uniform,a baffle was placed at the outlet of the distributor to(obstruct) the central flow.The effects of the throat diameter and gas-liquid flow rate on liquid distribution were studied in a column of 27 cm in diameter.Meanwhile,the Venturi distributor was simulated by computational fluid dynamics(CFD).A distributor tray,which was assembled by a group of distributors,was also inv...
