    Dear all, Thanks for your answers. I am aware that several options are available at the different vendors. Maybe I should rephrase my question: "Is it necessary to foresee a jacketed BV on a tank that contains water in a Western-EU climate? What are the guidelines? I cannot find anything in the...

    natural thermosyphon reactor

    Hi George, Thanks for your answer. The HTF has to be changed cause the new catalyst works at lower temperatures, thus lower pressures at saturation T leading to a too high pressure drop in the steam generator and so the liquid level drains it. So i guess this is difficult to do by hand...

    natural thermosyphon reactor

    Dear all, I’m working on a project related to a reactor in which natural thermosiphon boiling of an organic heat transfer medium occurs on the shellside of a reactor (11 m long, D = 3.5 m, 4500 tubes filled with catalyst). The organic fluid is returned to the reactor strongly subcooled, then...
