Example 15.3 Kern

The document describes the calculation of a kettle reboiler. 45,500 lb/hr of bottoms at 400°F enter the kettle reboiler, from which 28,100 lb/hr of vapor is formed at 200 psig. Heat is supplied by 28° API gas oil between 575-475°F at 120 psig. The goal is to calculate the required length of a 25 in ID kettle reboiler containing a six-pass 15 1⁄4 in tube bundle to provide sufficient heat transfer. Calculations are shown to determine the necessary heat duty, heat transfer area, and other parameters to size the kettle reboiler.

Example 15.

Calculation of a Kettle Reboiler. 45.500 lb/hr of bottoms of 65OAPI gravity and


small boiling range at 400OF enter a kettle reboiler from which 28.100 lb/hr of vapor
is formed at an operating pressure of 200 psig. Heat is supplied by 28 OAPI gas oil
in the range from 575 to 475OF and 120 psig operating pressure. A pressure drop of
10 psi is permissible.

Available for the service is a 25 in. ID kettle reboiler containing a six-pass 15 in.
