Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger Software

Key Features of Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger Software:

  1. Step-by-Step Design and Rating Calculations:
    • Comprehensive chemical design and rating calculations for shell and tube heat exchangers.
    • Includes basic mechanical design capabilities.
  2. Units Flexibility:
    • Supports S.I. Units and English (U.S.) Units for seamless international usability.
    • Includes a Units Converter with 23 measurements and over 200 unit conversions.
  3. Case Study Optimization:
    • Compare unlimited cases in a data grid table for optimization scenarios.
    • Select parameters for multi-case studies to identify the best solutions.
  4. Custom Nusselt Number Correlations:
    • Add custom correlations for enhanced design flexibility.
    • Format: Nusselt number = C * [Reynolds number ^ a] * [Prandtl number ^ b] * [Viscosity term ^ c], Where; C, a, b and c are input variable defined by the user. the user can also choose to omit the viscosity term if needed.
  5. Results Management:
    • Generate detailed results and export to:
      • PDF: Engineering data sheets.
      • Excel: Editable spreadsheets.
      • CSV: Results summaries for analysis.
      • RTF: Microsoft Word-compatible summaries.
    • Print preview and direct print options for results summaries.
  6. Advanced Calculations:
    • Solve for unknown flow rates, temperatures, exit conditions, duty, area, and velocities.
    • Compute baffle spacing, tube counts, and fouling resistance.
    • Evaluate heat transfer coefficients (clean, fouled, and required).
    • Analyze Reynolds & Nusselt numbers, pressure drops, and pumping power.
    • Perform mechanical calculations like shell, nozzle, and channel thicknesses.
  7. Chart Plotting:
    • Visualize heat duty versus temperature.
    • Plot tube passes versus pressure drop.
    • Display inlet and outlet temperature profiles.
  8. Extensive Databases:
    • Over 1,450 pure component properties (thermal conductivity, density, viscosity, etc.).
    • Mixture properties estimation (liquids only).
    • User database customization for unique properties.
    • Built-in fouling factors, tube counts, material conductivities, water/steam properties, and more.
  9. Backup and Restore:
    • Securely backup and restore user databases.
