Hello All, I was hoping someon

Hello All,

I was hoping someone out there has a recommendation on software to use for pinch analysis with plate and frame HX network optimization? I came across Canmet Integration software, and it appears to have a lot of functionality; however, its only available to Canadian engineers ☹. Thank you in advance for any feedback and enjoy this fifth day of May.

Regards,
Janne

Aspen Pinch. Or ProSim Website
Depending on complexity, Excel could do the work too.

Also look at HINT (free) at:

Also, Pro II - Simsci offers pinch analysis if you have the HEXTRAN heat exchanger sizing / performance simulation software included.
