Abstract
The article deals with calculation methods of hydrodynamics for spray tower with porous packing. The towers of this type are used for cleaning and deodorization of contaminated outdoor air. Method is based on the mathematical modeling principle. Main formulae for hydrodynamics estimation are given. Reynolds criteria, Darcy's law, Blasius and Nikuradze formulae are used. The calculation methods of hydrodynamics for spray tower have been proposed. It allows evaluating tower processes e.g. air consumption, film and filtration liquid consumption, air and liquid average velocity and the thickness of liquid film. Further research will allow to obtain quality characteristics and to develop engineering calculation methods for the systems of this type.

Keywords: spray tower, porous packing, deodorization, air cleaning, calculation of hydrodynamics.
