A short note on the solution of a multi-effect evaporator system employed in pulp and paper industry

摘要

In this short communication the solution of a steady state model of a sextuple evaporator system used in a paper industry has been presented. With the help of the residual values of model equations (a set of 12 nonlinear algebraic equations) it has been shown that the presently obtained results are superior to the previously published results. The importance of the number of significant digits in calculation are also briefly discussed.
