Stock Approach Flow o Feed flow into the Stock Approach System ƒ

Stock approach system as a black box: which components are added & removed in the stock approach system & what is their influence on the paper making process. ƒ Which parameters can be used for controlling the feed flows into the stock approach system ƒ Effects of changes in the feed flows into the stock approach flow processing, overview o Stock & water loops ƒ Stock flows & main parameters in the stock approach system ƒ Water circulation & its effect on the runability & quality, overview o Machinery & build-up ƒ Machineries used in the stock approach system & goals of them ƒ Water circulation & its effect on the runability, wet end chemistry & quality o Impact on quality & runability ƒ The influence on the stock & paper quality in the stock approach system. ƒ Typical runability & quality problems related to wet end

x

Head box o Distribution systems ƒ

Cross flow header/tapered header & central distributor differences & functions ƒ Pulsation elimination tank o Design & types ƒ Head box types limited to open, pressurised & hydraulic head boxes ƒ

Distribution channels, stock dilution system, mixing chamber, turbulence generator & lamellas

o Efflux ratio ƒ

Control & adjustment of efflux ratio

Effect of the efflux ratio on the paper quality (fibre orientation & formation)

ƒ

o Turbulence generation ƒ

Different techniques for turbulence generation e.g. rectifier rolls & tube banks

ƒ Influence of the turbulence generation on the formation, paper quality & dewatering ƒ Differences between macro & micro turbulences o The ‘Slice’ ƒ Functions of the slice ƒ Adjustment of the slice & its influence on the stock flow, paper quality & dewatering. ƒ Velocity forming vs. pressure forming o Impact on paper machine runability & product quality ƒ

Adjustments of the head box & their effect on the paper machine runability & the paper quality

x

Chemical additives in the wet end o Chemicals to enhance product quality
