Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis has become and integral part of providing optimal designs for inlet feed devices and surrounding separation internals. The following discussion and case studies show how the use of CFD analysis guidelines can be applied to optimize the design and performance of crucial refinery columns. This modelling method can help eliminate chronic problems caused by feed mal-distribution and poorly designed feed devices.
