Question
What are the factors involved in designing kettle type reboiler?
Answers
To design the kettle type reboiler the requirements that needed to be present are as follows:

The size of the kettle has to be determined.
Provide the space to slow down the vapor velocity of all the liquid droplets.
Deciding the destination where the vapor would be deposited.
Handling a distillation tower with the following property: large space, high efficiency and high reflux rate.
The height of the vapor space should be kept such that the differences in the temperature won’t affect the kettle. There should be high heat flux for the kettles that run on higher temperatures.   Your Comment
