Heat Transfer
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..

Follow these guidelines to improve reliability and reduce emissions
Using an integrated approach conserves energy andhydrogen
Applying plant-wide pinch analysis for an existing facility often lowers CAPEX for expansions and retrofits
Consider validating process data to develop realistic hydrogen balances
With accurate information, refiners can apply new assessment tools to fine-tune plant networks
