It has been found that the regime transition occurs as the clear liquid height is equal to the residual pressure drop on the trays. A convenient and accurate technique was proposed for determination of the regime transition point. Based on analysis of the transition process at a sieve hole, a new formula which can be used to correlate the experimental results was provided.展开更多
