Software
HTRI methods and software—based on extensive research data collected on industrial-sized heat transfer equipment—have remained the industry standard for nearly 50 years. Our research is ongoing and unparalleled. As we obtain and analyze new data on shell-and-tube and non-tubular heat exchangers, air coolers, heat recovery bundles, and fired heaters, we update our methods and incorporate them into the next version of our software.
