Based on these results two methods were studied and simulation results showed that the placement of suitable inlet weir with unequal height or guide plates could reduce retrograde flow effectively to achieve uniform liquid flow on the whole tray. Key words distillation trays liquid flow retrograde flow ratio of weir to diameter guide plates inlet weir with unequal height
