Step #1: Evaluate the LMTD correction factor given the value of P and R ( Computed ) P = 0.19 R = 3 From this set of conditions, See Table on LMTD correction factor to determine the factor F corresponding to type of flow ( Parallel or counterflow) and number of passes Enter correction Factor, F 0.94 Step #2: Check the value of overall conductance, U against the recommend values 1,869.27 W/m2-K Computed value of U = Based on the correlation of Reynolds
number, flow condition and thermal conductivity, Check this value against permissible range from table of overall conductance U,

Enter value of U if the computed value is within the range Step #3: Check the % surface design of heat exchanger due to fouling effects 61% Computed value of = If the value is too high , Set value for desired surface design then enter

Step #4: Evaluate computed length of tube of heat exchanger, Note that standard length is in 20 ft and it is recommended to use it out of the its length 1.89 m Computed Length = Enter, the effective length of tubes should not < computed length 4.00 Step #5: Evaluate the re-calculated shell diameter on the new length of HX, Inside diameter should referred to available shell to be used ( can be pipe or rolled plate) 0.68 m Computed Shell ID = Enter new shell ID,must be available size 0.80 Step #6: Enter the absolute viscosity at wall temperature, Evaluate at reference temperature T = 24.83 oC Reference Temp.
