Center Pipe

The center pipes inside the radial flow reactors are used for flow collection or distribution. They are typically cylindrical, with the outer layer defining the boundary of the catalyst bed.

  • To ensure a high open area for the wedge wire screen, we employed a combination of precise dimensional calculations, advanced manufacturing processes, and strict dimensional control of the overall assembly (e.g., the flow distribution system).
  • To ensure the axis remains perfectly aligned during installation, we used a laser controller to verify perpendicularity at every stage of production.

 

Application: Gas purification, reforming, CCR (Continuous Catalytic Reforming), ammonia conversion, styrene.

 

Design based on your application

The connecting nozzle to the center pipe/inner screen can be positioned at the upper or lower end, with the flow direction either inward or outward.

 

 

 

Design Parameters

Process parameters:

Gas flow and pressure drop through the catalyst are essential to define the outer diameter, length, and the distribution system, including perforation percentage or deflector shape.

 

Mechanical parameters:

Catalyst weight, additional axial load (F), radial load (ΔP), and design temperature are needed for the mechanical design.
