Abstract
An apparatus for use in transferring heat and mass, having a receptacle for a liquid with a pile lock and a liquid distributor surface onto which the pile lock supplies a film of the liquid. The distributor surface faces downwards and liquid withdrawing means act to withdraw the film of liquid from the surface and carry it to an outlet means. The heat and mass transfer takes place on the liquid withdrawing means.
Claims7
In an apparatus, for use in transferring heat and mass, in combination
- a receptacle for receiving, holding and discharging liquid,
- a pile lock in said receptacle operable to guide in film form liquid discharged from said receptacle,
- distributing means defining a liquid film distributor surface having a first curved portion and extending from said pile lock, and a second portion extending from said first portion and facing downwards,
- an outlet means, and
- liquid withdrawing means extending below said second portion and being operable for withdrawing liquid from said second portion and discharging it into said outlet means,
- said distributing means being connected to said pile lock and establishing an uninterrupted guide for said liquid film extending from said receptacle to said liquid withdrawing means.
In an apparatus, for use in transferring heat and mass, in combination
- a receptacle for receiving, holding and discharging liquid,
- a pile lock in said receptacle operable to guide, in film form, liquid discharged from said receptacle,
- means defining a liquid film distributor surface having a first curved portion and extending from said pile lock, and a second portion extending through an area below said receptacle,
- said first curved portion further comprising sections which lie parallel to said pile lock which sections may be spaced apart by not more than 5 millimeters,
- an outlet means, and
- liquid withdrawing means extending below said second portion and being operable for withdrawing liquid from said second portion and discharging it into said outlet means.
