The design calculation for an agitated nutsche filter dryer (ANFD) involves several factors, including the filter area, the type of filter media, the required pressure, and the agitation speed.
Here are some general steps to consider when designing an ANFD:
- Determine the required filtration area based on the desired throughput rate, the solids content of the feed, and the required level of filtration efficiency.
- Select the appropriate filter media based on the properties of the feed material and the desired filtration performance. Examples of filter media commonly used in ANFDs include cloth, wire mesh, and sintered metal.
- Determine the required pressure to achieve the desired filtration rate. This will depend on factors such as the viscosity of the feed, the filter media, and the size of the filter cake.
- Determine the appropriate agitation speed to promote efficient filtration and drying of the filter cake. The agitation speed should be high enough to prevent caking and ensure uniform distribution of the feed, but not so high as to damage the filter media or reduce filtration efficiency.
- Determine the appropriate heating and cooling systems to facilitate drying of the filter cake. This may involve the use of hot water or steam for heating and a jacketed vessel or external cooling system for cooling.
- Consider other factors such as the size and shape of the vessel, the material of construction, and safety features such as pressure relief valves and interlocks.
- Once the design parameters have been determined, perform calculations to verify that the vessel and agitator are capable of withstanding the required pressure and agitation forces.
Overall, the design calculation for an ANFD is a complex process that requires careful consideration of many factors. It is important to work with experienced engineers and designers to ensure that the ANFD is properly designed and meets all necessary safety and performance requirements.
