Optimizing Heat Exchangers with Aspen Exchanger Design & Rating

Comprehensive Heat Exchanger Design Solutions

Aspen Exchanger Design & Rating (EDR)™ offers a cutting-edge solution to optimize both CAPEX and OPEX by integrating heat exchangers into the larger process model with rigorous HX models and seamless data flow. This software provides a comprehensive set of rigorous HX models, allowing for accurate design and rating of heat exchangers across different disciplines. By utilizing Aspen EDR, companies can achieve the most optimal designs that balance performance and economics effectively.

Activated Exchanger Design and Rating

One of the key features of Aspen EDR is its ability to fully incorporate heat exchanger designs within Aspen HYSYS® and Aspen Plus®. This seamless integration enables engineers to produce designs that are not only optimal from a performance standpoint but also economically viable. By leveraging the activated exchanger design and rating capabilities, users can ensure that their heat exchangers are designed to meet the highest standards and specifications, such as the latest ASME standards.

Comprehensive Design Capabilities

Aspen EDR allows users to design all major heat exchanger types, including shell and tube, fired heater, plate, plate-fin, coil-wound, air-cooled, and more. This wide range of design capabilities ensures that engineers have the tools necessary to create efficient and effective heat exchangers for various applications. Additionally, Aspen EDR helps improve the mechanical design quality of shell-and-tube exchangers, ensuring reliability and performance.

Extensive Physical Property Database

With a vast physical property database containing 37,000 components, 127 property packages, and over 5 million data points and interaction parameters, Aspen EDR provides users with the necessary resources to design heat exchangers accurately. The software employs state-of-the-art activity coefficient models and equations of state, ensuring that simulations are as precise as possible. By utilizing this comprehensive database, engineers can achieve higher levels of operational excellence and accelerate their digital journey.

Transforming Industries Towards Sustainability with AspenTech Pharma Suite

The Importance of Decarbonization

Asset-intensive industries are significant contributors to global resources, economic growth, and employment opportunities. However, these industries are also responsible for a substantial portion of the world's greenhouse gas emissions. To address this issue and meet the ambitious emissions reduction targets set by the Paris Agreement, industrial processes must undergo decarbonization. According to a McKinsey study, industrial activity alone contributes to 28% of total global GHG emissions, highlighting the urgent need for sustainable solutions.
