Xist Workshop (US$450)
Instructors: Peter Joosten and Frank Ashley
This workshop is devoted to the shell-and-tube exchanger geometries handled only by Xist. The course focuses on the extensive options available in Xist and how you can use these methods effectively to solve several example problems. You will leave the class knowing how to take full advantage of the features this robust tool offers.
Key Topics
- Overview of Xist interface and the benefits of HTRI methods
- Process specifications rules for rating, simulation, and design
- Guidelines for specifying fluid properties
- Description of Xist geometry input parameters and their defaults
- Interpretation of Xist outputs for validation of unit performance
Suggested Participants
Designers of shell-and-tube heat exchangers and process engineers who evaluate their performance
HTRI Software
This course will make use of the following HTRI software: Xchanger Suite® component Xist®. All training materials are based on the current software version.
Course Credits: 6 hours (PDH/CEU)

Xace Workshop (US$450)
Instructors: Peter Joosten and Frank Ashley
Do you design air-cooled heat exchangers? Evaluate their performance? Then this workshop is for you. Learn how to use Xace effectively to rate and design air-cooled heat exchangers, economizers, and air preheaters. All example problems and practice exercises relate to geometries handled only by Xace.
Key Topics
- Overview of Xace capabilities and applications
- Geometry inputs for air coolers and economizers
- Process specifications for rating, simulation, and design
- Guidelines for specifying fluid properties
- Introduction to HTRI analysis methods
Suggested Participants
Designers of air-cooled heat exchangers and process engineers who evaluate their performance
HTRI Software

Heat Exchanger Troubleshooting Short Course (US$650)
Instructors: Peter Joosten and Frank Ashley
Design decisions can have a costly impact on heat exchanger operation. In this course, you learn by reviewing several real cases in which unit designs had critical commercial consequences for operators/ owners. Among other topics, this course may address
- assessment of acoustic vibration in rectangular ducted bundles (Xace®)
- vibration analysis of a shell-and-tube heat exchanger (Xist® and Xvib®), including a review of the velocity scaling applied to tubes near impingement plate edges
- sizing of annular distributor (vapor belt) and associated tube vibration analysis (Xist and Xvib)
- root cause analysis of tube failures in a steam generator (a reboiler/steam drum configuration modeled as a thermosiphon reboiler in Xist)
- design review of an air-cooler/condenser (Xace) with excessive tubeside pressure drop during winter operation
In some cases, the units did not work in service; in others, the designs were revamped before the units began operation. Each case study is introduced as a problem; participants work individually or in groups to determine the cause and develop solutions. Prior to each case, the instructor reviews related HTRI methods.
Suggested Participants
Engineers—from novice to expert—who want to ensure that design problems are identified before operation
HTRI Software
This course will make use of the following HTRI software: Xchanger Suite® components Xist®, Xace®, and Xvib®. All training materials are based on the current software version.

Senior Sales Engineer, graduated in 2017 with a BS in Mechanical Engineering from Texas A&M University – Kingsville in Kingsville, Texas, USA. Ashley’s education and experience have given him exposure to manufacturing methods and insight into building customer relationships. These skills have served him well in his role at HTRI to help expand HTRI membership in the USA and Canada. Along with his role in sales, Ashley also helps facilitate trainings and webinars for HTRI products.
Manager, Technical Support & Sales Australia/Oceania, works with HTRI’s Engineering Services and Global Sales teams. His principal responsibilities include developing and conducting training programs, providing technical support, and promoting membership in the HTRI consortium. He earned a Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering degree from Fontys University of Applied Science, Venlo, The Netherlands. Prior to joining HTRI, Joosten was a Senior Heat Transfer Engineer at W. E. Smith Engineering, Coffs Harbour, Australia. His primary role was the thermal design and analysis of all types of shell-and-tube exchangers, air coolers, economizers, feedwater heaters, and steam surface condensers. He was also responsible for the mechanical design and stress analysis of these units, as well as for analyzing and resolving operational issues. His previous experience with HTRI software gives him a valuable end-user perspective.
