How to calculate the amount of random tower packing used

The amount of random tower packing used needs to be calculated based on the specific size of the cooling tower or container, the specifications of the packing, and the stacking density. The following is a clear, point-by-point calculation step and summary:

1. Determine the container size:

Common container shapes include : rectangular, cylindrical, spherical, and the volume calculation method for containers of different shapes is different.

2 Determine the packing specifications and stacking density

1)  Determine the specifications of the random packing used. The sizes of the conventional random packing of Chemshun Ceramics Co., Ltd. are 16mm, 25mm, 38mm, etc.

2) Find the corresponding stacking density (kg/m³) according to the specifications of the packing. For example, the packing density of a ceramic ball ring may be as follows:

- 16mm ceramic ball ring: 800kg/m³

- 25mm ceramic ball ring: 700kg/m³

3. Calculating the amount of packing

1). Use the following formula to calculate the amount of random packing:

Packing amount (M) = container volume (V) × packing density of packing (kg/m³)

This formula tells us how much mass of packing is needed to fill a given container.

2）. Substitute the container volume and packing density calculated in the previous step into the formula to get the required packing amount.

4. Notes

1）In actual applications, it may also be necessary to consider the shape, size, stacking method of the packing, and other components in the container.

2） In order to obtain more accurate calculation results, it is recommended to refer to the technical data provided by the packing manufacturer or consult relevant professionals.

Through the above steps, you can clearly calculate the amount of random packing to be used and adjust and optimize it according to actual needs.
