Simulate and design multi-stream axial and crossflow plate-fin exchangers using an incremental model with research-based heat transfer and pressure drop correlations. Additional combustion and convection section modules allow evaluation of a complete process fired heater.
Xfh uses a Hottel zoning method to calculate localized radiant and process side performance. Simulate the performance of cylindrical and box heaters. Xace includes vendor fan selection calculations and options to simulate the effect of flow and temperature maldistribution. Xist supports all standard TEMA exchanger types, and includes integrated tools for flow-induced vibration calculations and tube layout design.ĭesign, rate, and simulate air coolers and economizers including natural draft (fans off) and forced draft conditions. This capability makes the best use of HTRI’s proprietary heat transfer and pressure drop correlations and allows the most accurate performance predictions possible for all exchangers.ĭetailed information about Xchanger Suite and the nine individual components can found below.ĭesign, rate, and simulate virtually any type of shell-and-tube exchanger including kettles, hairpins, thermosiphons, reflux condensers, and falling film evaporators.

WHAT IS HTRI SOFTWARE SOFTWARE
Mechanical design software for shell-and-tube exchangers, including 2D and 3D drawing capabilities. Software for evaluating heat transfer and pressure drop performance of enhanced surfaces. They offer a high level of confidence in predicting heat transfer and fluid flow characteristics in single- and two-phase flow, including considerations such as flow stability and maldistribution, and provide comprehensive fluid property predictions to support these. Honeywell UniSim® Heat Exchangers are validated programs designed for use by the process design community for the thermal design and simulation of heat exchange equipment. HTRI also licenses, distributes, and provides technical support for software products from other companies that provide our members with a full-range of options for their thermal process needs. Supported by extensive data collected for over 50 years on our industrial-scale heat transfer equipment, this software quickly and accurately handles heat exchanger calculations.Ĭalculation and trending of fouling resistances for shell-and-tube heat exchangers in single-phase service, using Microsoft® Excel® as the working environment with an optional link to Xist. HTRI Xchanger Suite Educational is a version of Xchanger Suite customized for use by educational institutions. These programs are regularly updated as we obtain and analyze new research data.
HTRI Xchanger Suite provides tools for a wide variety of heat transfer equipment including shell-and-tube and non-tubular exchangers, air coolers and economizers, heat recovery bundles, fired heaters, and more. These thermal analysis and design tools are backed by our long-running proprietary research program. HTRI software products are widely recognized as the industry standard for the design, rating, and simulation of heat transfer equipment.
