🔍 Key Concepts

• Trace the piping connected to valve D and identify which component or pump it affects directly. • Consider how opening valve D would change the flow path and pressure in the system (bypass, recirculation, or additional load). • Relate any change in flow through pump 7 and into the evaporator to the rate of vapor formation inside the evaporator shell.

💭 Think About

• Does opening valve D give the water an easier (lower resistance) path, or does it force more flow through the evaporator? How would that affect vapor formation? • If the same pump is supplying multiple branches, what happens to its discharge pressure and flow through each branch when you open an extra line? • Would changing the flow at valve D significantly affect the jacket water cooler load, or is that cooler on a separate circuit?

✅ Before You Answer

• Confirm exactly where line D comes from and where it goes by following the arrows and labels on the illustration. • Verify whether pump 7 is a positive displacement or centrifugal pump; think about how each type responds to an added open path (more flow vs higher pressure). • Check whether valve D connects the pump discharge back to suction (a recirculation/bypass) or into the evaporator feed; this will decide whether vapor production increases or decreases.
