A.
If sufficient residence time (around 8 seconds) is not proivided to the downcoming liquid in the downcomer, it may entrain some vapour.
|
B.
The liquid head in the downcomer should not be greater than one half the plate spacing to avoid flooding.
|
C.
The dischare end of the downcomer must project far enough into the tray liquid so that no gas bubbles can enter the open end and by pass the bubble caps.
|
D.
none of these.

A.
Clearance between shell & baffles and between tube & baffles should be minimum to avoid by-passing of the fluid, but it should be enough to permit the removal of tube bundle.
|
B.
Baffles are supported independently of the tubes by tie rods and positioned by spacers.
|
C.
Tie rods are fixed at one end in the tube sheet by making blind holes and the minimum number of tie rods is 4 with at least 10 mm diameter.

D.
Bracket supports are used for horizontal shell, while saddle support is used for vertical shell.
