Check this:
Csc-efficiency cap. #VALUE! Data Range: 5<surface tension<73 and 0.07

X (Flow Parameter) = #VALUE!

% flood = #VALUE!
Effcient Capacity Rating #VALUE!

Pressure Drop Estimation

Y (Vertical Flow Parameter) #VALUE!
Y=F*C-Factor^2*Kinematic Viscosity^(-0.11)

Pressure Drop fill in inches water/foot of packing

Max Y-Factor @ X fill in inches water/foot of packing at 1" water/foot of packing

Max Y-Factor @ X fill in inches water/foot of packing at 1.5" water/foot of packing

Hydraulic Flood
(Based on 1" water as flood) #VALUE!
(Based on 1.5" water as flood) #VALUE!

HETP Estimate for non aqueous, non reacting, non ionizing and a low relative volatility (ie less than 3)
HETP Acceptable range for equation use: 2.0<surface tension<26.6 and 0.06<liquid viscosity<0.83

System Base HETP = A= fill in B= fill in

System Base HETP Case1 = #VALUE! inches based on liquid viscosity < 0.4 cP
HETP =A*(surface tension/20)^(-0.16)*(1.78^liquid viscosity)

System Base HETP Case 2 = #VALUE! inches

HETP =B*(surface tension/20)^(-0.19)*(liquid viscosity/0.2)^.21 based on liquid viscosity > 0.4
