HCHex
HCHex is a handy little tool that takes the hassle out of doing thermal calculations for helical coil exchanger design. Basically, this program automates all the sizing and thermal calculations for you, and it even generates a summary with all your results in one go!
Automatic Calculations Made Easy
This app can figure out unknown hot and cold side temperatures, along with the exit temperatures on both sides. It calculates pressure drops on both the shell and tube sides—this includes frictional drops, outlet, inlet, and total drops. How cool is that?
Useful Features for Your Projects
You can also find out unknown flow rates on either side (hot or cold), vessel dimensions, tube length, the number of spiral turns for the helical tube, heat load area, and even estimate the Nusselt number.
Add Your Own Data
The app lets you input your own Nusselt correlation in three different formats. If needed, you can add a specific number or a heat transfer coefficient as well. Plus, it comes packed with databases that can estimate physical properties for nearly 1,500 fluids!
Convert Units Like a Pro
Need to convert units? No problem! The built-in unit converter handles 23 measurement units with around 200 conversions available. And guess what? You can see all these results displayed beautifully in charts.
