7 Introduction 7 Reboilers are commonly used heat exchangers on distillation columns, supplying most of the energy required for the column It is very important to properly design and operate the overall reboiler circuit o If too much heat is supplied, the tower will flood; too little heat is available, separation performance decreases Significant ifi number of fractionator t problems can be attributed to either improper bottom circuit design or poor reboiler circuit layout Reboiler problems are thought to be the second-most common cause of tower problems
8 Typical Kettle Slide 8
9 Problems & Objectives 9 Tower bottom hydraulics is not generally investigated as mush much as mass transfer is This paper focus on the hydraulics of kettle reboiler circuits Experimental results are compared to analytical predictions
10 Approaches 10 Pressure drops of vapor phase between the reboiler and the column were measured using differential pressure transmitter The liquid level at the bottom of the column was measured using a bubbler Pressure drops of liquid and vapor phases across the reboiler circuit were calculated/estimated using basic fundamental fluid dynamics

30 Conclusions 30 Pressure drops across the reboiler circuit and liquid levels can be measured and monitored using differential pressure transmitters Measured pressure drops and liquid levels agree reasonably well with the calculated/estimated l ti t d values Pressure drop of fliquid idphase can be significant ifi portion of total pressure drops, which needs to be considered and included in the reboiler circuit designs
