2. A steam-jet pump maintains a temperature 50°C in the evaporator. The cooled water leaves at the same temperature and warms to 10°C as it does its refrigeration. Make up water is available at 21°C. There is required 1.27 kg of nozzle steam per kg of vapour removed from the evaporator. For a 175 kW plant, compute the, a.) Quantity of chilled water b.) Volume of vapour handled c.) Quantity of steam needed.
