Evaporator (disambiguation)

Andy Dingley:

---

An '''[[evaporator]]''' is a device which turns the liquid form of a substance into its gaseous or vapour form. This is a widely used process and there are many applications for it.

Fundamental chemical production processes:
* [[Vacuum evaporation]]
* [[Flash evaporation]]
* [[Multi-effect distillation]]

Mechanisms for performing evaporation:
* [[Rotary evaporator]], a vacuum evaporator, typically used in chemistry laboratories
* [[Centrifugal evaporator]]
* [[Circulation evaporator]]
* [[Rising film evaporator]]
* [[Falling film evaporator]]
* [[Climbing and falling film plate evaporator]]
* [[Multiple-effect evaporator]]
* [[Vapor-compression evaporation]]

Air conditioning:
* [[Evaporative cooler]], simple unpowered cooling
* [[Evaporative cooling chambers]], an application thereof
* [[Spray pond]], large scale external cooling

Refrigeration:
* [[Vapor-compression refrigeration]], the common motor-driven form of refrigerator, where the ''evaporator'' forms the 'cold plate' within the refrigerator
* [[Absorption refrigerator]], a refrigerator powered by a heat source, also with an ''evaporator'' as the cold plate

Production of potable drinking water and boiler feedwater at sea or on arid coasts:
* [[Evaporator (marine)]]
* [[Chaplin's patent distilling apparatus]]
* [[Vapor-compression desalination]]
* [[Multi-stage flash distillation]]
