Specification
Evaporation is a process for concentrating a solution by vaporizing a part or all of the solvent. In most of the cases the solvent is water. The Pan Evaporator set-up is designed to study the fundamentals of evaporation process. The set-up consists of a jacketed pan evaporator made of stainless steel and an electrically heated steam generator of suitable capacity. To evaporate the solution in pan, steam is allowed to enter in the jacket using a control valve. Steam is produced in a steam generator, made of Stainless Steel. Steam generator is complete with heater, feed valve, vent valve, steam control valve, pressure gauge, safety valve, drain, level indicator and Digital Temperature controller. Condensate is collected from steam trap for energy measurement. Tilting is done by means of a rotating wheel to empty the pan. It has an interfacing unit designed by Engineers along with Labview software. This educational software allows/enables user to log the real time experimental data and tabulate the experimental/sample reading according to the requirement of experiment. User have a control on data logging, printing the stored data and preparing spread sheets in Excel. Flexible graph plotting facility is also available in the software.
