The invention relates to a flow device (12) intended for a two-phase flow processing enclosure (10) of the natural counter-flow type, in which an ascending gaseous flow and a descending liquid flow circulate, which device is formed by an appreciably horizontal tray (13) having openings (14) for the passage of the ascending gaseous flow, and a channel (15) for recovering the descending liquid flow, the channel (15) discharging into a flow orifice (16), characterized in that it comprises a single guide device (18) extending beneath the tray (13) and connected to the flow orifice (16) in such a way that the liquid flows on its outer wall. The invention also relates to a processing enclosure, particularly for processing a hydrocarbonated or aqueous type liquid flow, comprising a flow device according to the invention.
A flow device for a two-phase flow processing enclosure of the natural counter-flow type, in which an ascending gaseous flow and a descending liquid flow circulate, comprising an appreciably horizontal tray having openings for the passage of the ascending gaseous flow, and a channel for recovering the descending liquid flow, the channel discharging into a flow orifice, and further comprising a single guide device extending beneath the tray and connected to the flow orifice in such a way that at least part of the liquid flows on its outer wall.
