Distributor nozzle for a two-phase charge in fixed-bed reactors

Distributor nozzle for a two-phase charge in fixed-bed reactors, characterized in that it comprises the following components:

• a deflector cone or deflector cone frustum (14, 24, 34, 44, 54) that can be either solid or hollow, depending on its shape and manufacturing process, and which has a variable angle, or alternatively more than one angle, for improving the distribution and reducing the dry area in the “shadow” of the projecting legs and the deflector cone or deflector cone frustum itself;
• fixing bars or legs (13, 23, 33, 43, 53) for fixing the cone in the shaft, which are vertical or inclined towards the inside or outside wall of the shaft and extend from the top, bottom or side of the deflector cone or cone frustum;
• flow-redirecting devices (16, 26, 36, 43, 55) to ensure the wetting of the region that lies directly below the cone, which devices may be formed by small channels, holes or slits in the deflector cone, by vertical extensions of the cone itself (in the form of “teeth”) or by a combination of these devices with the legs, in order to help to redirect part of the liquid stream.
