Estimated U for 3rd effect(U3) 1128.26347 W/m²K
Heat balance
1st effect λ1 = latent heat of steam at
at 366 K = H1 - h2s
367.135K 2272.423 kJ/kg
w_sλs + w_FHF = w1H1 + (w_F-w1)h1 H2 = enthalpy of steam leaving 2nd effect = H3s+Cpsteam(BPR2)
59.476w_s - 63.075w1 = 1 -->eqn(1) H2= 2646.6 kJ/kg + 1.884kJ/kgK*BPR2 2672.593 kJ/kg
h2= enthalpy of outlet at T2 = CP2(T2-0)= 0.0585kcal/kg⁰C*T2 85.49151 kJ/kg
2nd effect
w1λ1 + (w_F-w1)h1 = w2H2 + (w_F-w1-w2)h2
134.1186w1 - 154.0572w2 + 1 = 0 -->eqn(2)
Also, Heat transfer rate in each effect
w1+w2 = 0.7778 -->eqn(4) Q1 = w_sλs 1025.2942 kJ/s U1A1Δt1
Q2 = w1λ1 937.01069 kJ/s U2A2Δt2
Solving these equations,
w_s 0.4541 kg/s
w1 0.41234 kg/s
w2 0.36546 kg/s
