Design of a small heat exchanger (Shell-and-tube type)

This project is mainly focusing on designing one type of a heat exchanger which is shell and tube heat exchanger. Step by step on designing, the software is build first to make the work on calculation easy and simple by using ε-NTU method. This method technically more simple than LMTD where it has t...
