Logarithmic mean temperature difference is the same as the arithmetic mean temperature difference.

Question: A dilute aqueous solution is to be concentrated in an evaporator system. High pressure steam is available. Multiple effect evaporator system is employed, because
[A].

total heat transfer area of all the effects is -less than that in a single effect evaporator system.

[B].

total amount of vapor produced per Kg of feed steam in a multiple effect system is much higher than in a single effect.

[C].

boiling point elevation in a single effect system is much higher than that in any effect in a multieffect system.

[D].

heat transfer co-efficient in a single effect is much lower than that in any effect in a multieffect system.
