    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norbert_Rillieux

    Norbert Rillieux (March 17, 1806 – October 8, 1894) was a Louisiana Creole inventor who was widely considered one of the earliest chemical engineers and noted for his pioneering invention of the multiple-effect evaporator. This invention was an important development in the growth of the sugar industry.

  3. Evaporative cooler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporative_cooler

    An Egyptian qullah, set in drafts to cool interiors. Porous pottery and coarse cloth maximize the area for evaporation. An evaporative cooler (also known as evaporative air conditioner, swamp cooler, swamp box, desert cooler and wet air cooler) is a device that cools air through the evaporation of water.

  4. Evaporator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporator

    An evaporator is a type of heat exchanger device that facilitates evaporation by utilizing conductive and convective heat transfer, which provides the necessary thermal energy for phase transition from liquid to vapour. Within evaporators, a circulating liquid is exposed to an atmospheric or reduced pressure environment causing it to boil at a ...

  5. Thermal expansion valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_expansion_valve

    A thermal expansion valve or thermostatic expansion valve (often abbreviated as TEV, TXV, or TX valve) is a component in vapor-compression refrigeration and air conditioning systems that controls the amount of refrigerant released into the evaporator and is intended to regulate the superheat of the refrigerant that flows out of the evaporator ...

  6. Circulation evaporator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circulation_evaporator

    The evaporator uses separate parts to create the overall system; a heat exchanger, separation tank and for the forced circulation system (as opposed to the natural circulation system) a circulation pump are standard although can be subject to change depending on the liquids properties of the mixtures being separated and specific design.

  7. Mechanical vapor recompression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_vapor_recompression

    Alternatives to mechanical vapor recompression (MVR) are: Multiple effect evaporation (MEE); Thermal vapor recompression (TVR) (also known as thermocompression); A combination of the three methods may be used depending on the process.

    Okerulu specifically highlighted Franco Sarto loafers, saying the brand does interesting things with textures, colors, and designs. Go out on the town in mules. Mules can be great for a preppy look.

  9. Rising film evaporator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rising_film_evaporator

    The main advantage of the rising film evaporator is the low residence time of the liquid feed in the evaporator compared to other evaporator designs like plate-type evaporators. This is crucial because it allows the usage of the evaporator in higher operating temperatures and gives assurance of high product quality despite the product being ...
