Designing New Exchangers or Retrofitting?
Whether you are designing a new heat exchanger or trying to get more out of an existing one, hiTRAN Thermal Systems offer robust and cost-effective solutions. hiTRAN Matrix Elements have an adaptable geometry which allows easy installation, whether under the controlled conditions of a manufacturer’s workshop or the more challenging environment of a working process plant.
New Heat Exchanger Design
Many tubular heat exchanger designs can be improved by the application of hiTRAN turbulators. The best results are obtained where the tubeside heat transfer is limiting, and substantial reductions in required surface area can be achieved. For more information, click here.
Retrofit
hiTRAN Thermal Systems have been used to increase the performance of existing heat exchangers for over 30 years and many of those retrofits are still delivering their benefits today. Compared to alternative solutions, enhancement retrofits are quick and simple and can deliver real improvements for very modest cost. For more information, click here.
See For Yourself
Many examples of the application of hiTRAN Thermal Systems are provided on this website as case studies. If you have Aspen software available you can also explore the benefits through detailed simulations by downloading Cal Gavin’s dedicated software – hiTRAN SP.
Design and performance review service
Cal Gavin engineers also provide a design and performance review service for any application (including two phase flow systems – film evaporators, single and multi component condensers, thermosiphon reboilers, and forced reboilers), where you consider hiTRAN turbulator technology could benefit the operation of a plant or specific equipment.
