Heat Exchangers: Fundamentals and Design Analysis

This document discusses the basic design approach for tubular heat exchangers. It outlines the steps as defining the problem constraints and desired outputs, selecting a heat exchanger type, estimating initial design parameters, evaluating if the pressure drop and heat transfer are acceptable, and then performing a detailed design evaluation if needed. It provides examples of problem definitions and highlights methods for calculating shell-side heat transfer coefficients and pressure drops. Key references on heat exchanger selection, rating, and design are also cited.
