Rigorous heat transfer and pressure drop calculations using a 3D incrementation scheme that divides the exchanger into a large number of zones.Split-pass headers with up to 24 tubepasses in each tuberowģD plot displaying local air flows for natural draft unit.Single bundle, multiple bays, bundles in parallel, and multiple bundles/services options.Automatic or user-specified bundle layouts.Staggered and inline arrangements with any combination of transverse and longitudinal pitch.Twisted tape inserts and internal microfin tubes.High-finned, low-finned, continuous-finned, stud-finned, and plain tubes.

Up to nine different tube geometries per bundle.

Horizontal, vertical, and inclined tubes.

Forced and induced draft, A-frame, and no fan configurations.

Integration with Exchanger Optimizer™ provides embedded costing features, which include fabrication, installation, and operational estimates for design cases.īundle layout tool allowing complete customization of bundle.

Dynamic display of values in all unit sets.

Both input and output can be displayed in multiple unit sets, including user-defined sets.

Can be embedded as a unit operation in any process simulator supporting CAPE-OPEN.

Includes built-in interface to most process simulators and mechanical design software.

Xchanger Suite includes VMGThermo™, an extensive and rigorous fluid physical property generator from Virtual Materials Group, Inc.

Integrated physical property system eliminates requirement for additional property generation software.

Extensive visualization tools show exactly how the exchanger is performing.

Detailed output reports provide overall and localized results.

3D incrementation calculates localized profiles for heat transfer, pressure drop, and flow regimes.

Models virtually any bundle arrangement.

The heat transfer and pressure drop correlations are continually improved as a result of our ongoing research.Īs a module in Xchanger Suite ®, Xace lets you quickly transfer applicable case data to other components like Xist ® or Xhpe ®. Xace ® is an incremental program that rates, simulates, and designs crossflow heat exchangers, such as air coolers and heat recovery bundles.
