Heat Transfer Calculations Evaporator #1 Evaporator #2

The document contains heat transfer calculations for two evaporators. It provides details on temperatures, heat duties, heat transfer coefficients, areas, sizing parameters, and cost estimates. Evaporator #1 has a higher heat transfer coefficient and treats more brine but less vapor annually than Evaporator #2. The total annual cost for four identical evaporators is estimated to be over $1.76 million.
