Assuming, that the largest mass of water is in the evaporator tank, the analysis of transient start-up or shut-do
M.cp.dT/dt = - Me.r+S.k.(Te-T), where Me is the mass flowrate of evaporated water and r(T) is the latent heat of water

This is a ordinary differential equation which must be evaluated numerically if the heat of evaporation is not a
Nevertheless it will be interesting to compare the numerically obtained results with the analytical solution for r
The numerical solution in the column A is explicit. R
Its your bussines to find out the analytical solution.
