Evaporation in Double-Effect Reverse-Feed Evaporators. A feed containing 2 wt % dissolved organic solids in water is fed to a do

uble-effect evaporator with reverse feed. The feed enters at 100°F and is concentrated to 25% solids. The boiling-point rise can be considered negligible as well as the heat of solution. Each evaporator has a 1000-ft2 surface area and the heat-transfer 700 btu/h -ft2-°F. The feed enters evaporator number 2 and steam at 100 psia is fed to number 1. The pressure iin the vapor space of evaporator number 2 is 0.98 psia. Assume that the heat capacity of all liquid solutions is that of liquid water. Calculate the feed rate F and the product rate Li of a solution containing 25% solids. (Hint: Assume a feed rate of, say, F 1000 lbm/h. Calculate the area. Then calculate the actual coefficients are U1 500 and U2- feed rate by multiplying 1000 by 1000/calculated area.) Ans. F- 133 800 lbm/h (60 691 kg/h), L,- 10700lb»/h (4853 kg/h)

Answer:

472,826 lb/hr

Explanation:

As per the given data:

Solids in feed= 2%

Solids in concentrate= 25%

HTA1 = HTA2 = 1000 ft^2

U1 = 500 Btu/ h ft^2 F & U2 = 700 Btu/ h ft^2 F

Overall material balance: Feed= Distillate + concentrate ----> Eq-1

Component balance: Feed * 0.02 = Distillate * 0 + concentrate * 0.25

Feed = 12.5 * concentrate ---> Eq-2

Boiling point rise = negligible, so solution & solvent vapor temperature will be same.

Assumed that the 1st effect is operating under atmospheric pressure (Boiling point - 212F).

As per the data:

Latent heat 212F = 300 Btu/lb

Latent heat 100F = 320 Btu/lb

As per material balance:

Vapor flowrate * latent heat = Overall HT coefficient * HTA * DT

1st effect: M-1= (500 * 1000 * (326-212)) / 300 = 190,000 lb/hr

2nd effect: M-2= (700*1000 * (212-100)) / 320 = 245,000 lb/hr

Distillate = M-1 + M-2 = 190,000+245,000 = 435,000 lb/hr

Substituting the above in Eq-1

Feed = 435,000 + concentrate

Substitute Eq-2 in the above

12.5 * concentrate = 435,000 + concentrate

Concentrate, L1 = 435,000/11.5 = 37826 lb /hr

Feed, F = 435,000 + 37826 = 472,826 lb/hr

1st effect operating pressure is not given, That may be the reason we are not getting the given answer. But procedure is right.

What is the definition of a tolerance on a dimension typically found on technical drawings?
Alinara [238K]
Tolerance is the acceptable amount of dimensional variation that still allows a part to perform as designed.

Any process will have variation and depending on the severity of the function some tolerance will be very small. For example the sheet metal thickness on portion of a space shuttle will have a much tighter tolerance than the thickness of a piece of lumber to build a house. Tighter tolerance of processes typically are related to more process control (e.g. money) thus designs should be fully vetted with process team before placing on a drawing.
