Calculation of series and parallel connection of heat exchangers
Thread Content
I have EDR in Aspen, and when dealing with heat exchangers, I need to use four of them – two in series within each group, with these two groups then connected in parallel. I’m not sure how to carry out the calculations; I hope someone experienced can help me out
I’m really curious too and would like to wait for an expert to answer
2 in series and 2 in parallel
The 3rd floor is the correct answer, but it is recommended to first conduct a steady-state process simulation in Aspen, with a 2-in-series/2-in-parallel configuration, and then carry out separate design calculations for each heat exchanger.
