Learn the Principles, Design Considerations of Heat Exchanger Design
Heat Exchangers are part and parcel of the process plants. The design of heat exchangers is always done by specialists in an EPC company or in vendor office. Most of the time such people conduct only exchanger design.
However, a process engineer, mechanical engineer or a plant operations professional may be required understand and exchanger design, specify an exchanger or trouble shoot an exchanger operation. They need to have an overall understanding of the design, construction, operation of the equipment in order to be effective.
