Design of F. D. Fan and I. D. Fan for Calciners in Alumina Refinery

Hi Friends,


In earlier posts, we have discussed the design calculations for sizing the HFO unloading pumps and HFO storage vessels based on certain applicable assumptions. In present post, we will discuss the methodology to work out the capacity of Primary air fan (F.D. fan) and Flue gas exhaust fan (I.D. Fan) required for Calcination system in Alumina refinery.
These calculations have been developed by the author based on the principles of chemical engineering for design and engineering of critical equipment for Alumina refinery. Your suggestions for further improvements in above design calculations shall be appreciated and welcomed.

Please put your views / suggestions / remarks / comments, if any.
