Heat Exchangers

An engineering module for detailed thermal and hydraulic calculations of heat exchangers – from design selection to operating performance assessment

Calculation modes
Design – selection of heat transfer area and equipment configuration; rating – evaluation of heat duty, temperatures and pressure drop for a specified exchanger
Exchanger types
Shell-and-tube, double-pipe, plate, spiral plate, plate-fin and coil-wound exchangers, as well as air-cooled exchangers
Geometry and process physics
Rigorous thermal and hydraulic calculations accounting for tube-bundle and channel geometry, the number of passes, baffle arrangements, finning and fluid properties, including TEMA configurations for shell-and-tube exchangers
