REGULAR ADAPTER FOR HEAT-AND-MASS EXCHANGE APPARATUSES Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC B01J19/32 B01D3/32 

FIELD: process engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to heat-and-mass exchange. Regular adapter is composed of sections arranged in several tiers over apparatus height and assembled from inclined staggered parallel drop-like elements. Ends of drop-like elements are interconnected by rod. Surface of said elements is made of net of lavsan monothreads. Round edge of plate section is directed toward gas flow while sharp edge are directed toward fluid flow. Angle of attack of said elements with respect to gas flow varies from 0 to 20 degrees. Elements are staggered but they are oriented in adjacent rows over apparatus height with opposite inclination relative to each other and horizontal shift by 1.0-3.0 of adapter element width. Spacing of adapter elements in every row makes 1.5-3.5 of adapter element width. Element height makes 4.0-8.0 of adapter element width. Adapter section elements in rectangular cross-section apparatus are arranged at 90 degrees relative to adapter elements in adjacent sections. Adapter elements in every row of round-cross-section apparatus form eight-lobe structure and are shifted relative to each other by 10°-40°.

EFFECT: higher efficiency.
