TechTip: Customized Heat Transfer and Pressure Drop Calculations in Xchanger Suite
January 26, 2012, 9:00 AM CST
Presented by Ian Gibbard

Xchanger Suite provides sophisticated modeling capabilities for a wide range of heat exchangers. Occasionally, you may need to customize the software to extend its capabilities. In this webinar, we discuss the reasons for using non-standard solutions and explore the range of customization options available. Additionally, using an example case, we review and demonstrate the use of f- and j-factors to specify pressure drop and heat transfer correlations.
