Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger

Heat Exchanger Performance is a powerful, user friendly, program for the analysis of two types of Heat Exchangers: Shell & Multi-Tube Exchangers, and Double Pipe Exchangers. In either case, the tubes are of the bare-tube type. The program will analyze the performance of a known heat exchanger: Given the flows and inlet temperatures of the Tube-side fluid and the Shell-side fluid, the program will predict the exit temperatures of both fluids and the total heat exchanged.

Features
# Properties for water and dry air are built-in
# Analyze the performance for any type of single phase fluids
# Tubes may be of any material and thickness
# Fouling factors may be of the % clean type
# Fouling factors may be of the fouling factors type
# Calculates the tube metal temperatures
# Uses rigorous formulations for Reynolds number, Prandlt number, and Nusselt number to predict the film coefficient for shell-side, tube-side and overall heat transfer coefficient
