WHY CHOOSE THIS TRAINING COURSE? 

This course is intended to present the fundamental thermal design concepts of shell and tube heat exchangers (STHES), fabrication and industrial practices, effective parameters in heat exchanger design and operation. 

During this course, trainees will be familiar with heat transfer principals, various international codes and standards, the type and components of STHES, computer–aided design methods, and effective factors in order to achieve an optimized design and well–operated heat exchangers focusing on the mechanical and practical aspects. 

Several workshops are also included with various real STHE examples in order to provide a better understanding of interaction between thermal and mechanical design. Conducting thermal design using relevant software will enable the possibility of analysis and troubleshooting practices.
