Abstract: Gas flow velocity profiles after four Gas Distribution Devices (GDD), mounted in column with diameter 0.5 m, have been measured experimentally. It is shown that the value of gas flow maldistribution factor (Mf) after each GDD depends on the initial gas flow velocity. The minimal values of Mf for every GDD at the investigated range of initial velocities have been determined. The lowest value for Mf (about 0.16) is reached for GDD №3 at lowest initial velocity (1.3 m/s) and for middle and highest one (1.6 and 2 m/s respectively) lowest Mf have been registered at GDD №4 (about 0.2 ÷ 0.22)

Keywords: gas distribution device, velocity influence, gas maldistribution factor
