== General Description ==

{{Evaporator General Description |TPS=AQSol  }}

== Inputs and Outputs ==

{{Evaporator Input and Output}}

== 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.

# '''[[Material Flow Section|QRxnBypass]]''' - Optional tab, only visible if ''ShowQRxnBypass'' is enabled on the [[#TCE tab page|TCE]] tab page.
# '''[[Material Flow Section|QFeed]]''' - Optional tab, only visible if ''ShowQFeed'' is enabled on the first tab page. This page shows the properties of the mixed stream as the feed to the Evaporator.
# '''[[Material Flow Section|QBodyFeed]]''' - Optional tab, only visible if ''ShowQBodyFeed'' is enabled on the first tab page. This page shows the properties of the mixed stream as the feed to the Body of the Evaporator.
# '''[[Material Flow Section|QRecycle]]''' - Optional tab, only visible if ''ShowQRecycle'' is enabled on the first tab page. This page shows the properties of the recycle stream.
# '''[[Material Flow Section|QProd]]''' - Optional tab, only visible if ''ShowQProd'' is enabled on the first tab page. This page shows the properties of the Evaporator discharge as a single stream.

== Hints and Comments ==

# The information in the [[Vapour Liquid Equilibrium (VLE)|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.
# AQSol uses the SysCAD VLE submodel to perform flashing.  Vapour-Liquid Equilibrium is not directly calculated by AQSol.
