What is the amount of heat necessary to change the state of a substance called?
The name given to the amount of heat necessary to change the state of a substance.
Answer to Problem 1RQ
The heat necessary to change the state of a substance is termed as latent heat.
Explanation of Solution
When there is a change in state of a substance that is the substance becomes liquid from solid or vapor from liquid or vice versa, a huge amount of heat is required, this heat is termed as latent heat of vaporization and this process is termed as phase change.
Phase change is quite a complex process and during this process, no change in pressure or temperature is observed.
Conclusion:
Thus, the heat necessary to change the state of a substance is termed as latent heat.

- 5) A 100 kg batch of granular solids containing 30% moisture is to be dried in a tray drier to 15.5% by passing a current of air at 350 K tangentially across its surface at a velocity of 1.8 m/s. If the constant rate of drying under these conditions is 0.7 g/s m2 and the critical moisture content is 15%, calculate the approximate drying time.

A liquor containing 15 per cent solids is concentrated to 55 per cent solids in a double-effect evaporator. operating at a pressure in the second effect of 18 kN/m². No crystals are formed. The flowrate of feed is 2.5 kg/ s at 375 K with a specific heat capacity of 3.75 kJ/kg K. The boiling-point rise of the concentrated liquor is 6 deg K and the steam fed to the first effect is at 240 kN/ m². The overall heat transfer coefficients in the first and second effects are 1.8 and 0.63 kW/m²K. respectively. If the heat transfer area is to be the same in each effect, what areas should be specified? D Aarrow_forward14.9. A forward feed double-effect vertical evaporator, with equal heating areas in each effect, is fed with 5 kg/s of a liquor of specific heat capacity of 4.18 kJ/kg K. and with no boiling point rise, so that 50 per cent of the feed liquor is evaporated. The overall heat transfer coefficient in the second effect is 75 per cent of that in the first effect. Steam is fed at 395 K and the boiling point in the second effect is 373 K. The feed is heated by an external heater to the boiling point in the first effect. It is decided to bleed off 0.25 kg/s of vapour from the vapour line to the second effect for use in another process. If the feed is still heated to the boiling point of the first effect by external means, what will be the change in steam consumption of the evaporator unit? For the purpose of calculation, the latent heat of the vapours and of the steam may both be taken as 2230 kJ/kg Ад Oarrow_forward
