A triple-effect forward-feed evaporator is used to concentrate a liquid which has marginal elevation in boiling point.
A triple-effect forward-feed evaporator is used to concentrate a liquid which has marginal elevation in boiling point. The temperature of the stream to the first effect is 125°C, and the boiling point of the solution within third effect is 45°C. Find out at what temperatures the fluid boils in the Ι and ΙΙ effects. The overall heat transfer coefficients are 2250W/m2 in the Ι-effect, 1800W/m2 in the ΙΙ-effect and 1300W/m2 in the ΙΙΙ-effect respectively.
