Hydraulic Rating

Over a period of more than two decades, KEVIN has gained vast experience in hydraulic rating of towers. Its vast clientele offer a proven track record of all of KEVIN's valuable rating services.

At KEVIN, hydraulic rating is computed using in-house developed software programs. The hydraulic rating ensures or checks optimum throughput for the towers under restraints stated by the customer. In fact, these programs aid in highlighting the problems that may arise due to improper selection of equipment, while establishing whether or not existing equipment can be reemployed for changed or higher throughputs. KEVIN regularly performs the below listed hydraulic calculations

• Hydraulic rating of packed columns (Random & Structured) to guarantee pressure drop, liquid hold-up and flooding.
• Hydraulic rating of tray columns (Bubble cap, Sieve, Valve and Baffle tray columns) to guarantee pressure drop, jet flooding and down-comer flooding.
• Hydraulic rating of Internals (Feed Pipes, Liquid distributors, Flash feed devices etc) to ensure adequate performance of these critical components.

It would be worthwhile to note that our past collaborator had regularly outsourced the hydraulic rating activity from KEVIN's engineers, along with the related mechanical design & supply of equipment.

The results are well proven with positive feedback and accolades received from customers.
