Estimation of Tower Dia meter of Sieve Tray $.$ A distillation sieve$-$tray tower is being used to distill a hydrocarbon feed. The vapor flow rate at the tower bottom is $21000k\frac{g}{h}r$ and the liquid flow rate is $19500k\frac{g}{h}r.$ The density of the liquid ${}_L=673k\frac{g}{m^3}$ and ${}_V=3\mathrm{.}68k\frac{g}{m^3}.$ Assume a tray spacing of $24in.(0\mathrm{.}610m).$ Calculate the tower diameter assuming the tower operates at $80\%$ of flooding. Assume $=22\mathrm{.}5dy\frac{n}{c}m.$

Ans. $K_V=0\mathrm{.}35,D=1\mathrm{.}372m(4\mathrm{.}50ft)$
