Reflux column size

Post by TheReader »

Okay, so I have a few questions around a reflux build. As I understand the pipe size (diameter) has an impact on the reflux speed. Right now I have a 1,5" pipe. Will I have any benefits to change the pipe to an 3" pipe? I only have a 1,5" hole in my lid, so I was thinking about using a reducer upside down so I can go from 1,5" to 3" and then back to 1,5". Will this help or do I have to have a 3" hole in the lid too? How much time will I save by going from a 1,5" pipe to a 3" pipe?

I tried to find some info about this, but I could not find anything while searching the forum.
