摘要
The gas-liquid multiphase Eulerian computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model was used to investigate hydrodynamics and CO2 removal efficiency of a pilot-scale amine absorber with structured-packing. The structured-packing was represented by a porous media zone having porous resistance, gas-liquid interfacial drag force, and liquid dispersion force. This study aimed to find a reasonable way to identify four modification factors of the Ergun coefficient that determine the hydrodynamic characteristics of structured-packing. The two modification factors (a and b) for porous resistance were mainly related to the liquid holdup (h(L)) with respect to the liquid load. The other two factors (c and d) for gas-liquid interfacial drag force depended on the specific wet pressure drop (Delta P-wet/L) versus the gas load factor. The h(L) and Delta P-wet/L increased in parallel with the increase of a and c, respectively, while the slopes of h(L) and Delta P-wet/L increased with b and d, respectively. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ltd.
