New Research Results and Software Integration for the Use of hiTRAN Wire
Matrix Elements
Peter Drögemüller, Research and Development Manager, Cal Gavin Limited
In recent years Cal Gavin has continued its commitment to research and
development. On the basis of measured data from the latest test rig it has
extended its range of data and can now accurately predict the heat-transfer
and pressure-drop performance of hiTRAN Elements for deep laminar, Re >
1, to high turbulent flow conditions, Re < 200,000. This presentation
will include typical data from our testing.
In order to empower its customers to design hiTRAN enhanced heat
exchangers the new data will soon be available through correlations provided
in a 'plug-in' for HTRI and Aspentech exchanger design software as well as a
new version of the standalone hiTRAN.SP. The use of the 'plug-in' will be
demonstrated by means of a case study.
The meeting will start at 7pm with a buffet from 6.15pm, kindly provided
by Cal Gavin
Venue is The Barley Mow, 104 Horseferry Road, Westminster, London, SW1P
2EE. Nearest stations are St James's Park and Victoria. MAP.
