The definition of a series circuit.

Explanation of Solution

A circuit in which only one path of flow of electricity is present and the components presents in the circuit are wired with end to end connection is called series circuit. In a series circuit the current leaves from first component must enter to the second component, because the component present in series circuit is connected with end to end. The current through each component (Resistor’s) in a series circuit is same.

The below figure represents schematic diagram of a series circuit.

A double-effect forward-feed evaporator is required to give a product consisting of 30 per cent crystals and a mother liquor containing 40 per cent by mass of dissolved solids. Heat transfer coefficients are 2.8 and 1.7 kW/m² K in the first and second effects respectively. Dry saturated steam is supplied at 375 kN/m² and the condenser operates at 13.5 kN/ m². (a) What area of heating surface is required in each effect assuming the effects are identical, if the feed rate is 0.6 kg/s of liquor, containing 20 per cent by mass of dissolved solids, and the feed temperature is 313 K? (b) What is the pressure above the boiling liquid in the first effect? The specific heat capacity may be taken as constant at 4.18 kJ/kg K. and the effects of boiling-point rise and of hydrostatic head may be neglected.
Example(2): Double effect evaporator is used for concentrating a certain caustic soda solution 10000kg/hr from 9wt% to 47wt%. The feed at 30°C enters the first evaporator. Backward arrangement evaporators are used. steam is available at 167.7°C and the vapor space in the second effect is 14.6Kpa. The overall heat transfer coefficients of the two effects are 8380 and 6285kcal/ W.CH ork -conce -SOLFFF and-ans.. 112.1 а DiD 3 respectively and the specific heat capacity of all caustic soda solution 3.771 KJ/Kg. °C, determine the heat transfer area of each effect معدلة 5:48 م O
