(a)

Take basis to be of feed.

Since the solid have concentration of at inlet, the amount of solid entering is,

Thus water in feed is,

As the solution become concentrated, the amount of solid remain same. As the solid is in
final solution, thus amount of water is given as,

Thus amount of water evaporated is given as,

Substitute as and as in above expression,

From appendix 7, at pressure or , boiling temperature is

And at pressure the steam temperature is

Also latent heat of steam is or

Now latent heat of solution at boiling temperature is or

Heat capacity of feed solution is given as or

Here is mass of solution, is heat capacity and is change in temperature.

Substitute as , as and as in above expression,

Heat required for water evaporation,

Here is latent heat vaporization.

Substitute as and as in above equation,

Thus total heat required is,

Or,

This is heat for evaporation of water.

For water,

Also total heat transferred is given as,

Here is overall heat transfer coefficient and is area.

Thus substitute as , as and rearrange above expression,

Thus the area is

Now heat lost by steam must be equal to total heat required

Thus,

Step 3 of 3

Substitute as in above equation and rearrange,

Thus steam consumption is
