초록

Within fractionating devices existing in separation and purification industries, sieve trays are widely used as tower internals and their choice is due to economical attractiveness. While operating a trayed distillation tower weeping phenomenon has a critical effect on the efficiency, in this case study a weeping phenomenon was undertaken by means of numerical model in a rectangular sieve tray. Eulerian-Eulerian Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method was used and the obtained CFD results are in a good agreement with the experimental data in terms of weeping rate and pressure drop.
