包装和加工行业中使用的“水壶”一词是指能够持有液体的船只。它通常意味着圆底和加热或冷却的手段。尺寸可能从几升到几百加仑。
Most kettles today arestainless steel虽然铜水壶还发现。有限公司pper kettles have the advantage of more even heat distribution. They have the disadvantage of being incompatible with some products.
Many kettles have jackets into which steam, hot or chilled water or other heating or cooling fluid may be circulated. A temperature control commonly regulates the flow to maintain a desired temperature. PLCs or other controllers may be used to drive a sophisticated heating and cooling profile. For example, heat the base material quickly to 150 degrees, after adding a flavor heat rapidly to 200 degrees and hole for 1 hour, then cool slowly to 80 degrees for packaging.
Not all plants have steam for heating. Gas fired and electrically heated kettles are also available when necessary.
Kettles are often open topped or have a loose fitting lid. Some kettles have a sealed top to withstand internal pressure or vacuum. Pressurization and/or vacuum may be useful in “cooking” some types of food, pharmaceutical or chemical products. Pressure allows a water-based product to achieve temperatures above boiling without evaporating. Vacuum allows liquid to be boiled off at while keeping the product at a lower temperature than would be possible in an open kettle.
一些非粘性产品将通过自然对流充分循环以均匀加热。大多数产品将需要某种类型的混合器。具有悬浮固体的产品还将需要混合器以防止颗粒沉降。搅拌机的范围从简单的螺旋桨搅拌机来帮助在非粘性产品中的自然对流，以便在粘性产品的情况下用刮板来反射桨。需要刮板以防止产品粘在水壶墙上。
Kettles are often top loaded by opening the hinged top or through a handhole in a pressurized kettle. Some kettles have piping connections that permit the liquid components to be injected directly. This can be useful to prevent splashing, foaming or air entrainment.
Some kettles are designed to be drained from the bottom. These may have a simple fitting with ball valve on the bottom. This is generally undesirable unless the diameter of the discharge is fairly large in relation to its length. If not, it forms a “dead leg” in which product does not circulate well. Particles in suspension may also settle into this deadleg. Kettles with a bottom discharge should have a special, flush, valve to eliminate this deadleg.
其他水壶在底部没有开口，并且安装在饰面上。通过旋转并倾倒产品将水壶清空。当过程需要快速倾倒或产品具有很多固体时，这将是有用的。
Industrial liquid silos are a type of tank used for bulk storage of liquids and semi-liquids. They are commonly storage, as opposed to processing or transport tanks. Their high aspect ratio (height relative to diameter) and non-openable top is what makes them “silos” rather than “tanks”. Silos are often located outdoors though they can be located indoors ceiling height permitting.
结构通常是不锈钢，尽管筒仓可以建造玻璃纤维，塑料，衬里或无衬里钢或其他材料。高筒仓中的液体可以施加相当大的侧向压力，尤其是在水箱底部。这会变形正方形或矩形筒仓，因此几乎所有液体筒仓都是圆形的。末端可以呈现，圆锥形或平坦。如果平坦，则可能希望头部倾斜以易于排水（底部），并避免污垢和碎屑（顶部）外部覆盖物以进行物理保护或绝缘层，以避免使用大温度波动。室外筒仓。筒仓可能会被夹住，以允许蒸汽，冷水或冷水甚至氮循环以保持恒定的产物温度。
必须提供合适的配件和连接器，以填充和排水筒仓。需要级别传感器来显示筒仓中有多少产品。有几种类型：
- Mechanical floats connected by wire or magnetically to a scale
- Load cells to monitor the weight of the product in the silo
- Pressure sensors at the bottom of the silo. These convert head into level
如果需要，可以安装内部喷球或喷嘴进行自动清洁。
如果需要清洁或维护，则可以使用人孔进入筒仓内部。
谨慎：诸如孤岛之类的狭窄空间很危险。切勿在不采取所有安全预防措施的情况下进入筒仓，也不要在筒仓外面拥有第二个人。
大多数筒仓不是为了承受真空而制造的。如果筒仓在没有足够通风的情况下清空，则可以产生足够的真空，从而折叠筒仓。如果蒸汽清洁或消毒，冷凝的蒸汽将产生足够的真空度以塌陷。所有筒仓都必须在最坏情况下有足够的排气。除了适当的排气外，还建议进行破裂磁盘。如果发生过多的真空，这些断裂允许紧急排气。
为预期目的选择适当的储罐对于正确的处理，处理和制造至关重要。储罐可用于存储，运输，混合2液体，混合液体和粉末，加热，冷却，烹饪，反应和其他数十种用途。您需要了解以下一些有关它们的知识。
- Size matters – Too small and it won’t hold sufficient product. Generally it is a good idea to oversize a tank to allow for future uses. Aspect ratio, the proportion of height to diameter may be determined by the space available but may also impact the product itself especially if the tank is to be used for mixing. Most tanks are vertical round cylinders but these take up more floor space than square tanks. Horizontal cylinders are also used for some applications.
- Stainless steel is a common material for process tanks and is compatible with most, but not all, products. All grades of stainless are not the same and it is important to pick the proper one for your product. Other materials include a variety of plastics, fiberglass, glass lined steel, copper and specialty metals.
- Open or closed? Open tanks may have a loosely fitting cover or not but they are will not hole pressure or vacuum. Closed tanks can be sealed and, generally, pressurized. A tank strong enough to withstand positive pressure is not necessarily strong enough to withstand negative pressure or vacuum. Draining or steaming a tank without proper venting and cause a tank to implode. All closed tanks must have proper pressure relief valves or rupture disks.
- 用于蒸汽，热水或冷水的夹克可以保持产品温度。
- Some tanks only need 2 openings for product to enter and leave. Many tanks need more. Level and pressure sensors will need fitments. A handhole or manhole may be useful for cleaning and inspection. Mixers or agitators may be required. These must be specified when designing a tank.
