Excessive weeping
Dump point
Weep point - liquid descending through tray openngs.The weep point is defined as the vapor rate when the weeping
becomes first noticeable. At that point little efficiency is lost.
Excessive weeping - As vapor rate is reduced further, so much liquid is falling through the openings which causes
significant reduction in tray efficiency .
Dump point - All the liquid on tray deck falls through the openings and none reaches downcomer.
Area of Satisfactory operation - a good tray performance
Snap In
easy to install and minimize damage in transportation
mainly used with Shell CS & Shell HiFi
Caged Valve
Good turndown and less dry drop
as in the partially open status, dry drop ~ the weight of the moving plate
BDH
Advantages:
No rotation, broad leg
Minimize liquid gradient, lateral release
Minimize weeping, orientation is parallel to liquid flow
Super turndown
High pressure drop
High entrainment
High liquid gradient
Expensive 3 & 4 in 6 in

Straight DC Sloped DC
Sloping leads to a big bubbling area, but sloping might introduce stagnation
Stagnation area
Column is round, and sloping DC leads to more stagnation area
