Both the design of heat exchanger done by using HTRI and Adi Indra’s thesis are compared. Hence, a better performance of shell and tube type heat exchanger can be obtained. By using kern method for thermal calculation and number of iteration were done manually in Adi Indra’s thesis, then the results are being compared and analyzed in HTRI software.
So, in order to have a good and optimized design, manual and software based calculations should be carried out simultaneously and verified with each other. It may happen sometimes that due to human error, manual design results may come out to be somewhat inaccurate. In the same way, manual design should also be verified with industrial software like HTRI. But it is also important to verify the results with manual calculations.
HTRI is the most widely used software in the industry namely heat exchanger manufacturing industry. HTRI has a rigorous and integral approach which gives more accurate results compared to manual calculations. 15ĬHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background It has been observed that manual calculations often become lengthy and iterative. 15 Figure 20 Designed shell and nozzle from HTRI software. 14 Figure 19 Designed shell and nozzle from Adi’s thesis. 14 Figure 18 Tube arrangement from HTRI software. 13 Figure 17 Tube arrangement from Adi’s thesis. 13 Figure 16 Shell and tube design from HTRI software. 12 Figure 15 Shell and tube design from Adi’s thesis. 11 Figure 14 Output summary from HTRI software.
