Shell & Tube Condenser Design Sofware

£110 GBP£550 GBP – 5 Licenses (Valid for 3 years)

The Shell and Tube Condenser Design (CnD) software is an advanced tool for performing thermal analysis and design calculations essential for engineering shell and tube condensers. Whether you’re designing horizontal shell-side condensers, vertical tube-side condensers, or reflux condensers, this software provides the precision and flexibility required for professionals and academics in the engineering field.

This user-friendly application streamlines the design process, but it requires foundational knowledge in thermodynamics, fluid flow, and heat exchanger design to utilize its full potential effectively.

Key Features

Measurement Support

Shell & Tube Condenser Design Software
  1. Supports both S.I. Units and English (U.S.) Units of measurement.
  2. Includes a unit converter with 23 measurement categories and over 200 unit conversions.

Data Integration

  1. Import physical properties data from Microsoft Excel or the integrated WeBBusterZ Physical Properties Database (featuring over 1,450 components).
  2. Add your own components or properties to extend the database.

Results Handling

  1. Generate detailed engineering datasheets, exportable in PDF or Excel formats.
  2. Export results summaries to Microsoft Word or print them directly.
  3. Track calculation changes for comparative analysis between design trials.

Advanced Calculations

  1. Supports a wide range of condenser designs:
    • Horizontal shell-side
    • Horizontal tube-side
    • Vertical shell-side
    • Vertical tube-side
    • Reflux condensers
  2. Handles full and partial condensation, with options for:
    • Subcooling
    • Superheated vapor
    • Zone analysis
    • Shear-controlled and gravity-controlled condensation
  3. Includes detailed outputs for critical variables like:
    • Heat duty
    • Condenser area
    • Number of tubes
    • Shell and tube velocities
    • Pressure drops
    • Condensation flow regimes
    • Overall heat transfer coefficients (clean and fouled conditions)

Enhanced Design Flexibility

  1. Supports TEMA standards, triangular/square tube orientations, and bare tube designs.
  2. Calculates unknown variables such as hot or cold side temperature or hot/cold-side flow rates.
  3. Can calculate an unknown two temperatures; one on either side when heat duty is specified.
  4. Can calculate both unknown flow rates on hot and cold sides when the heat duty is specified.
  5. Includes tube counts, standard tube size tables, fouling factors, and material thermal conductivities.

Database Features

  1. Extensive property estimation for pure components, including thermal conductivity, density, heat capacity, and viscosity. With two fluid databases one internal containing 500 fluids and the second is provided through a separate software included with the purchase and easily integrated into the shell and tube condenser design software.
  2. Incorporates water and steam property tables.
  3. Maximum allowable design velocities for liquids inside tubes are predefined for accurate calculations.
