(c) An evaporator is operating at atmospheric pressure. It is desired to
concentrate the feed from 5% solute to 20% solute at a rate of 5000 kg/h.
Dry saturated steam at a pressure corresponding to saturation temperature
of 399 K is used. The feed is at 298 K and boiling point rise is of 5 K.
Overall heat transfer coefficient is 2350 W/m
2
K. Calculate economy and
heat transfer area for evaporator.
Latent heat of condensation of steam at 399 K is 2185 kJ/kg
