Question:
A jacketed vessel similar to the one in Exercise 2.8 is used to heat a liquid by means of condensing steam. The following information is available:
(i) The volume of liquid within the tank may vary.
(ii) Heat losses are negligible.
(iii) The tank contents are well mixed. Steam condensate is removed from the jacket by a steam trap as soon as it has formed.
(iv) Thermal capacitances of the tank and jacket walls are negligible.
(v) The steam condensation pressure Ps is set by a control valve and is lot necessarily constant.
(vi) The overall heat transfer coefficient U for this system is constant.
(vii) Flow rates q’ and q are independently set by external valves and may vary.
Derive a dynamic model for this process. The model should be simplified as much as possible. State any additional assumptions that you make.
