The current research paper summarizes the work carried out by authors on an evaporator tube. The work includes design, fabrication and testing of an evaporator tube in two variants; finned and un-finned versions. The outcome of the research is that, the finned version of the evaporator generates more steam when compared to the un-finned version without increasing the cost of material and space requirements.
