Description
This workshop is an introduction to modeling the performance of process fired heaters using Xfh Ultra. Starting with a brief review of fundamental concepts, attendees will then use an API 560 Specification Sheet of a proposed fired heater design to develop a complete fired heater model in Xfh Ultra and rate the heater’s performance.
Key Topics
- Process fired heater fundamentals
- Xfh Ultra capabilities and applications
- Heuristic approach to model development in Xfh Ultra
- Fluid definitions, process specification, and geometry inputs
- Practical guidelines for interpreting Xfh Ultra output reports and measures of performance
Suggested Participants
