The time-temperature curve of the liquid in the container； 2. Time-temperature curve of the hot fluid in the heating tube – outlet temperature

The blue line in the graph represents the temperature rise curve of the liquid inside the tank; it can be seen that the rate of temperature increase gradually slows down, which is in full agreement with reality, as the temperature inside the tank rises, the temperature difference for heat transfer decreases. This software is the most comprehensive, scientific, and user-friendly coil heat exchange calculation tool to date. China National Petroleum (Jidong) Petroleum Machinery, Lanxing (Beijing) Chemical Machinery, and others are typical legitimate users. As for some other container companies, due to competitive reasons in the business world, their contracts prohibit the disclosure of the fact that they possess the Dr. Coil Heat Exchanger software, so I can’t mention them here. For the heating and cooling of tank areas in many design institutes, there is no actual calculation; instead, estimates are made based on the experience of senior experts. These days, young people can use coil heat exchangers to carry out calculations with great accuracy, without having to spend a lot of money on low-quality approximations – it’s both accurate and cost-effective. Software is knowledge, and knowledge is power.
