Q1:

Which of the following accessories is provided in the vapor line of an evaporator for removing the entrained liquid ?

A Bleed point

B Vent

C Catchall

D Baffle

ANS:C - Catchall

In the vapor line of an evaporator, the accessory provided for removing the entrained liquid is typically a "catchall" or a similar device designed to separate liquid droplets from the vapor stream. This helps ensure that only vapor flows through the vapor line, while any liquid is captured and drained off separately. Options like a bleed point or a vent might be used for other purposes such as controlling pressure or removing air from the system, but they're not specifically designed for removing entrained liquid. A baffle, on the other hand, is a device used to control the flow of fluid or gas, and while it may be present in the evaporator, it's not specifically for removing entrained liquid.
