🔍 Key Concepts

• flash evaporator loop seal purpose in a multi‑stage distilling plant • how an orifice controls flow and pressure drop between stages • relationship between vacuum levels and absolute pressure differences in different shells and heaters

💭 Think About

• Think about what would happen to the vacuum in each stage if there were NO orifice in the loop seal—would the pressures equalize or stay different? • Consider whether the orifice is mainly there to move vacuum from one space to another, or to CONTROL how much pressure/level difference exists between two spaces. • Ask yourself: in normal operation, what must be kept different for proper flashing—pressures between stages, or just a common vacuum throughout?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which pieces of equipment are supposed to operate at different absolute pressures for effective flashing. • Decide whether the loop seal orifice’s job is to transfer vacuum or to restrict flow enough to preserve a pressure difference. • Verify in your study material how the second stage shell pressure compares to the feed heater pressure and why that difference matters.
