Question: The 1 0 % NaOH solution is fed to the 1 st unit of a triple - action evaporator at a temperature of 3 0

The 10% NaOH solution is fed to the 1st unit of a triple-action evaporator at a temperature of 300 K with a flow rate of 10 kg/h. The pressure in the 3rd effect is 13.3 kN/m2 and the NaOH taken from this effect is 40%. The heat of heating of the solution is 4.18 kJ/kg. K can be taken. The elevation of the boiling point will not be neglected. The steam is saturated water vapor at a pressure of 205 kN/m2 and is fed to the 1st effect and the condensate is separated as a saturated liquid. If the heating areas are equal, calculate the areas, temperature differences and steam consumption. (U1=5 kW/m2. K, U2=3.2 kW/m2. K, U3=1.4 kW/m2. K)
