pressure of 200 mm Hg absolute. The maximum allowable entrained liquid is 0.001 kg liquid per
kg of vapor. Equations to calculate the vapor pressure of water, liquid density, and vapor density
are given in problem 10.3 of your textbook. Calculate the maximum allowable velocity of the
vapor from the evaporator.
