Latest SysCAD Version: 25 October 2024 - SysCAD 9.3 Build 139.36522

General Description

The Evaporator is used to 'flash' a feed stream to produce a liquid and vapour product at a set pressure or temperature. The unit may also have connections to an Embedded or External Heat Exchanger.

There are two operational modes for the Evaporator:

as a stand-alone unit; or
as part of a Flash Train.

The user sets the operational mode of the Evaporator. However, if the user sets the mode as Flash Train and the Evaporator is NOT connected to another Evaporator (Embedded Shell), Barometric Condenser, Heat Exchangers of any Flash Train aware destination unit, the model will go to an error state.

Diagram

The diagram shows default drawings of the Evaporator with connecting streams, with heat exchanger connections.
The Heat Exchanger connections are optional.
The user does not have to connect a stream to the 'Overflow' connection, as the Evaporator will operate without this connection.
The physical location of the streams connecting to the Evaporator is unimportant. The user may connect the streams to any position on the unit.
When inserting an Evaporator into a flowsheet, the user may choose a different symbol from the menu.

Crystallization

The Evaporator model may be used as a Crystallizer, as it behaves in the same way. Vapour is flashed off and the remaining solution is then supersaturated with the required species. This species then precipitates out as the crystal product.

If the PHREEQC model being used by the PHREEQC Evaporator has solubility data for the species, then the amount of species that precipitates will be automatically calculated. The solution properties will be calculated by PHREEQC and by the selected SysCAD species model.

At this time, PHREEQC evaporation models are suitable for water evaporation. This is because gases are treated as pure phases in the PHREEQC calculations. Only insoluble gases can be included in these models.

Heat Exchange Options

The user may select any of the following 3 options for heat exchange:

None - no Heat Exchange is required.
Embedded - The Embedded Heat Exchange model uses a Shell and Tube style heat exchanger. The user connects the Steam (or other cooling or heating medium) to the Embedded HX Shell connection and the Condensate (or return heat exchange medium) to the Embedded HX Shell. The recycle flow to the heat exchanger must to be specified, but this is handled internally within the unit.
External - External Heat Exchange models the use of external heat exchangers taking a recycle stream from the Evaporator contents and heating, or cooling, this recycle stream. The user must connect the Recycle stream from the Evaporator to an external heat exchanger. This recycle stream is either heated or cooled then returned to the Evaporator via the Recycle stream. The recycle flow to the heat exchanger must to be specified, and this is sent to the Recycle connection.

NOTES:

The difference between the two heat exchange methods:
- With Embedded heat exchange, the steam and condensate streams (or other heat exchange medium) are connected directly to Evaporator via the Embedded HX Shell connections. The Recycle stream to the heat exchanger is handled internally within the unit.
- With external heat exchange, the recycle stream is sent to an external heat exchanger via the Recycle output connection and returned to the Evaporator via the Recycle input connection.
For both Embedded and external heat exchange the user must set the recycle flow to the heat exchanger.

Inputs and Outputs

Label	Required / Optional	Input / Output	Number of Connections		Description
Label	Required / Optional	Input / Output	Min	Max	Description
Feed	1 Required	Input	1	20	Feed to the Evaporator.
Embedded HX Shell	Optional	Input	0	10	Inlet stream to the Shell side of internal Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger (often the steam inlet).
Recycle	Optional	Input	0	1	Recycle stream from an external Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger to the Evaporator.
Product	Required	Output	1	1	Product Slurry outlet - this stream normally contains the majority of the solids.
Vapour	Required	Output	1	1	Vapour (vent) outlet containing all Vapours from the unit.
Overflow	Optional	Output	0	1	Overflow liquor outlet.
Embedded HX Shell	Optional	Output	0	1	Outlet stream from the Shell side of internal Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger (often the condensate).
Recycle	Optional	Output	0	1	Recycle stream from the Evaporator to an external Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger.

Behaviour when Model is OFF

If the user disables the unit, by un-ticking the On tick box, then the following actions occur:

All material in streams connected to the 'Feed' and 'Recycle' inlets will flow straight out of the 'Product' outlet, with no change in phase or energy exchange with material flowing through the internal heat exchanger;
All material in streams connected to the 'Embedded HX Shell' connections will have no change in phase or energy exchange with material flowing through the Evaporator;
No sub-models will be called.

So basically, the unit will be 'bypassed' without the user having to change any connections.

Model Theory

Vapour Liquid Equilibrium

The unit is configured to achieve vapour : liquid equilibrium at a required pressure (or temperature) using the user defined VLE method. Any solids that may be in the stream entering the unit are ignored in the flash calculations. However the enthalpy balance does include the solids. For further information on the theory for the VLE calculations see Vapour Liquid Equilibrium (VLE).

Pressure used for Evaluation Block Calculations

For an Evaporator in the Stand Alone mode the calculations, including the PHREEQC Calculations may be performed at either:

The Feed pressure; or
The final pressure; or
The pressure into the Body of the Evaporator if the user has chosen Final Temperature as the mode.

The user enables the 'UseFeedP' tickbox on the first tab of the Evaporator to use the Feed pressure.

Using the Feed or other pressure may produce small differences in the final results from the Evaporator.

PHREEQC

The PHREEQC Evaporator Model uses the PHREEQC algorithms and data to determine the status of the aqueous solution.

Mapping of the SysCAD to PHREEQC streams is done via Species Mapping.

The PHREEQC Evaporator can be incorporated into a SysCAD flowsheet, it can be connected with SysCAD inlet and outlet streams.

User connects the PHREEQC Evaporator with SysCAD input streams,
The SysCAD feed stream(s) using SysCAD species is converted into PHREEQC "Input" using PHREEQC Species. The species mapping is defined in the corresponding PHREEQC Model Configuration unit model.
The PHREEQC Evaporator calls the PHREEQC algorithms to determine the status of the mixture using the converted PHREEQC "input" data.
The PHREEQC results are displayed in the "output" tab using PHREEQC species.
The results are converted back into SysCAD species. Please see Species Mapping for more information.

NOTES:

The Input, Output and Diff tab pages are displayed using PHREEQC species, as defined in the PHREEQC database file (.dat) specified in the corresponding PHREEQC Model Configuration unit model.
The species used in the SysCAD project are shown on the optional Sp pages, shown as part of the QFeed, QBypass, QUnmapped, QRxnProdBypass and QProd pages.
The calculations performed are similar to using PHREEQC directly, except the contents of the SysCAD stream are mapped to equivalent PHREEQC species using the settings defined in the PHREEQC Model Configuration unit model. Please see https://www.usgs.gov/software/phreeqc-version-3 for more information.

Calculation of Osmotic Pressure

PHREEQC calculates the activity of water, which is then used to calculate the osmotic pressure by the Van't Hoff formula. The Van't Hoff formula is:

[math]\displaystyle{ \Pi=-\frac{RT}{\overline{V}}ln(a_w) }[/math]

where [math]\displaystyle{ \Pi }[/math] is the osmotic pressure, [math]\displaystyle{ \overline{V} }[/math] is the partial molar volume of water (ideal), and [math]\displaystyle{ a_w }[/math] is the activity of water (mole fraction basis).

WorkFlow

The suggested workflow for configuring the model is:

Make sure the project contains at least one of the PHREEQC Model Configuration model, and the model is loaded with the correct PHREEQC database you would like to use for the PHREEQC Evaporator model.
On the PHREEQCEvaporator tab page, configure the model - methods, pressures, etc.
On the TCE tab page, select the correct ChemModel (to match step 1) (Note: In older builds, this selection was made on the PHREEQCEvaporator tab page).
Select other TCE options (Bypass, CFE, etc.)
Perform an equilibrium calculation by pressing Solve in SysCAD.
The Results are displayed in the PHREEQCResults and Output tabs.
Check and fix any species mapping issues. (PHREEQC resulting species may change if the operating conditions change, so it is likely a change of temperature or feed composition will result in different PHREEQC species.)

The following Solids Method (with Solids PSD) assumes the Solid-Liquid separator is used to emulate the screen.
Solid Separation Requirements.
SolidMethod	Simple (no PSD)	The feed does not need size distribution for this method and the unit acts as a simple mass splitter. If the user chooses this mode then they must define the solids and liquids split from the unit. (This option is visible for the Screen 2 model only)
	Partition Curve	The user inputs a Partition curve (fraction of feed solids per size interval reporting to the oversize) on the PartCrv(deck number) tab. The screen will use this curve, so the size distribution in the feed to the screen has no effect on products. Note: A single partition curve is used for all the size distributions.
	Whiten	The screen model will calculate the solids split using the Whiten method. The user must specify the d₅₀ and alpha, a measure of the sharpness of separation.
	Karra	The screen model will calculate the solids split using the Karra method. The user may specify either the d₅₀ or the Screen area and Cut aperture.
	Rosin-Rammler	This method is based on a Rosin-Rammler type of function with the efficiency curve expression derived by Reid and Plitt. User must specify d₅₀, sharpness of separation, maximum size allowed to undersize and minimum percent of solids reporting to oversize.
	Lynch	This method is based on a Lynch type of function. User must specify d₅₀, sharpness of separation (m), maximum size allowed to undersize and minimum percent of solids reporting to oversize.
	DelVillar-Finch	This method is similar to Rosin-Rammler, but includes a term for the "fish hook" effect for entrainment.

Whiten.Aperture	Input	Only visible if one of the two Aperture CalcMethods are chosen. The Screen Aperture, used to calculate the d50.
Whiten.Efficiency / Eff	Input	The Whiten Efficiency of the Screen. If the user selects one of the 'Aperture' methods, then this is used to calculate the d50. If the user selects one of the 'd50' methods, then this value is used to calculate the Screen aperture (see Theoretical Nominal Screen Aperture).
Whiten.d50	Input/Calc	If either of the d50 methods are chosen, this is entered by the user. If the Aperture method is chosen, this is a calculated value. This is the particle size with a 50% probability of reporting to the over or under size.
Whiten.Alpha	Input	The Efficiency parameter, alpha. An alpha value of between 8 and 15 is normal for screening. However, this does depend on the screening conditions and hence experience and/or test or plant data is required for accurate results.
Whiten.Beta	Input	Only visible if the d50 with Beta or Aperture,Eff with Beta CalcMethods are chosen. The Beta Efficiency parameter. This value takes into account uncertainties in the finer size fractions.
Whiten.Beta*	Calc	Only visible if the d50 with Beta or Aperture,Eff with Beta CalcMethods are chosen. Efficiency parameter.
Whiten.MaxSizeToUS	Input	The model will ensure that all particles LARGER than this size all report to the Screen deck oversize product. This value is often = Screen Deck Aperture. (See Model Theory).
Whiten.MinToOS	Input	The model will ensure that a minimum fraction of solids in each size distribution reports to the oversize product. For example, if the user specifies a minimum of 5%, then at least 5% of each size distribution will report to oversize. (See Model Theory).
Whiten.Rf	Input	The proportion of feed liquid reporting to the over size product to be used in the fines calculation. Note: This value is only used to adjust the solids fine fraction to the screen oversize and NOT to set the fraction of liquid reporting to the oversize stream.
If the user has selected SolidMethod=Whiten and Whiten.CalcMethod = d50 or d50 with Beta, the following fields will be visible:
Theoretical Nominal Screen Aperture
Whiten.Efficiency / Eff	Input	The Whiten Efficiency of the Screen. Used to calculate the Screen aperture.

Karra.MaxSizeToUS	Input	The model will ensure that all particles LARGER than this size all report to the Screen deck oversize product. This value is often = Screen Deck Aperture. (See Model Theory).
Karra.MinToOS	Input	The model will ensure that a minimum fraction of solids in each size distribution reports to the oversize product. For example, if the user specifies a minimum of 5%, then at least 5% of each size distribution will report to oversize. This accounts for fines adhering to coarse particles or fines in the liquid.
Karra.Calc_d50	Calc	Only visible if CalcMethod=Area. The calculated d50 of the deck, using the Karra equations.
Karra.d50	Calc	Only visible if CalcMethod=Area. The d50 that is used to determine the screen partition curve. This is normally equal to the field above. But, if the calculated d50 > screen deck aperture, then the model will use the screen deck aperture.
Karra.FeedOversize	Calc	Only visible if CalcMethod=Area. The fraction of oversize material (Q) in the Feed to the deck.
Karra.FeedHalfsize	Calc	Only visible if CalcMethod=Area. The fraction of half size material (R) in the Feed to the deck.

Hints and Comments

The information in the VLE Section must be correct for the Evaporator to operate as required. If the VLE configuration requires information that is not available, then the flashing will not occur.
PHREEQC uses the SysCAD VLE submodel to perform flashing. Vapour-Liquid Equilibrium is not directly calculated by PHREEQC.
