Input Data and Recommended Practices

DOI 10.1615/hedhme.a.000251

3.3.5 Input data and recommended practices

In this section we deal with three subjects:

  1. The basic set of input data as required for shell-side rating calculations, but also including those required for design of the overall exchanger, that is, including tube-side flow. These are presented in Table 1.
  2. Detailed comments to the input data, to give guidance to the designer as to proper practices and standards.
  3. Preliminary calculations of correlational parameters derived from the input data, as required for subsequent calculations.
