TEMA & HTRI Heat Exchanger Design & Cost Saving Management Training Course

Consultant/Trainer: Bert Boxma

The course provides in-depth practical understanding of major proven heat exchanger technologies and “state of art” fouling mitigation technologies. Pro’s and Con’s of several heat exchanger types are presented with real-life operational examples. This course provides a good mix of theory and common practices using highly interactive case studies where attendees are encouraged to use in-house heat exchanger type selection software and rigorous design/rating world-class software from HTRI.
