Heat Transfer
1000 Kg of liquid at 30°C in a well stirred vessel has to be heated to 120°C, using immersed coils carrying condensing steam at 150°C. The area of the steam coils is 1.2 m² and the overall heat transfer co-efficient to the liquid is 1500 W/m².°C. Assuming negligible heat loss to the surrounding and specific heat capacity of the liquid to be 4 kJ/kg.°C, the time taken for the liquid to reach desired temperature will be

22 min
51 min

Heat Transfer
A dilute aqueous solution is to be concentrated in an evaporator system. High pressure steam is available. Multiple effect evaporator system is employed, because

Total amount of vapor produced per Kg of feed steam in a multiple effect system is much higher than in a single effect
Total heat transfer area of all the effects is -less than that in a single effect evaporator system
Boiling point elevation in a single effect system is much higher than that in any effect in a multieffect system
Heat transfer co-efficient in a single effect is much lower than that in any effect in a multieffect system
