Heat Transfer
The fouling limit in crude oil preheat train retrofits
Here are the design considerations for both single exchangers and exchanger networks
Simplify your thermal efficiency calculation
Standard charts and a spreadsheet help
Avoid sulfuric acid corrosion in metallic stacks
Use these guidelines to prevent condensation of acidic gases
Revamp induced-draft fan performance
Follow these six steps to ensure nothing is overlooked
Calculating temperature profiles of critical pipe supports
This method gives more accurate nozzle loads for strain-sensitive equipment
Optimize process furnace operations
Ceramic coatings improve production capabilities and thermal efficiencies of process furnaces and boilers
Reduce fouling in shell-and-tube heat exchangers
Proper design lowers capital costs and increases both efficiency and onstream time
Direct heat recovery of a cogeneration unit saves utilities and reduces emissions
Other benefits include improved refinery onstream time and reduced heater fouling/ coking
More accurate exchanger shell-side pressure drop calculations
The growing importance of energy conservation requires accurate pressure drop calculations. One type of pressure drop calculation that can be improved is for the shell side of shell-and-tube heat exch..
