- Example(3): It is desired to design a double effect evaporator for concentrating a certain caustic soda solution from 12.5wt% to 40wt%. The feed at 50°C enters the first evaporator at a rate of 2500kg/h. Steam at atmospheric pressure is being used for the said purpose. The second effect is operated under 600mmHg vacuum. If the overall heat transfer coefficients of the two stages are 1952 and 1220kcal/ m2.h.°C. respectively, determine the heat transfer area of each effect.
