  1. The equivalent evaporation (kg/hr) of a boiler producing 2000 kg/hr of steam with enthalpy content of 2426 kJ/kg from feed water at temperature 40°C (liquid enthalpy =168 kJ/kg) is (enthalpy of vaporization of water at 100°C = 2258 kJ/kg)
    1. 2000
    2. 2149
    3. 186
    4. 1649
Correct Option: A

Equivalent evaporation =
h1 - hfeed
× rh
hfgam

Equivalent evaporation =
(2000)(2426 - 168)
= 2000 kg/hr
2258
