A Computer Program For The Design Of Packed Extraction Columns, George P. Gaccione
Theses
A computer program for the design of packed extraction columns has been developed. This program can operate with a minimum of data of the type that can easily be determined or estimated. The program can be used to investigate design alternates during the preparation of project cost estimates and for the final design of extraction columns.

The most difficult and time consuming aspect of the design of packed columns is the hydraulic part. If the designer wants to try many different conditions, many repetitive calculations will have to be performed. Also, some inaccuracy is incurred when trying to use the U.S. Stoneware curves. The graphs are hard to read and almost impossible to interpolate between the parametric lines. The purpose of the program is to give a more accurate calculation by using equations for the pressure drop lines, interpolating between them and correcting for gas density for each foot of packing. The program also allows changes …
