Multi-effect evaporation calculation method
Thread Content
I am learning about *multi-effect evaporation, and I’m looking for calculation methods. There’s a lot of theoretical information available online, but what I need are concrete examples – something that’s easier to understand visually. Thank you in advance.
For specific references, see the evaporation chapter in \"Principles of Chemical Engineering\" or the evaporation equipment section in \"Course Design for Principles of Chemical Engineering\"
\"Principles of Chemical Engineering\" doesn’t seem to work either; usually, heated steam is used to condense and then preheat the feed materials, but the steam consumption is related to the temperature of the feed. I think this is a dead end – the examples in \"Principles of Chemical Engineering\" don’t involve preheating, so the steam consumption is easier to calculate.
Then iterate! One must learn to draw inferences from one instance

Tell me exactly what you don’t understand and send it over. . . Take a look at the book \"Evaporator Process Design Calculation and Application\" written by Liu Dianyu; he is a professional in design, and his work is much more practical than that of some university professors
