Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger Design Software for Educational Applications

摘要: A software for the thermal and hydraulic design of shell tube heat exchangers with flowinduced vibration checks has been developed in a Windows-based Delphi programming environment. Its user-friendly input format excellent colour graphics features make it an tool teaching, learning preliminary exchangers. Design methodology is based on open literature Delaware method while flow-induced calculations adhere closely to prescribed by latest TEMA standards industry practice. It hoped that will bridge gap between teaching engineering fundamentals existing practice exchanger design.
