Training Course Overview
This Heat Exchangers training course will cover the technical and operational aspects of various heat exchanger designs, including shell-and-tube (STHE), air-cooled (ACHE), and plate (PHE) types, all of which are essential in thermal power plants, petrochemical, and process industries. It is crucial for engineers with diverse expertise to develop a strong understanding of the fundamental principles and the relationships between key parameters that influence the design and operation of effective heat exchangers.
The course will also introduce engineers and technicians to the relevant codes, standards, and best practices for the design, manufacture, operation, and maintenance of heat exchangers. A primary focus will be on the most efficient practices for the operation, inspection, maintenance, and repair of commonly used heat exchanger types, including shell-and-tube, air-cooled, and plate compact designs. The course will feature several workshops, incorporating case studies and real-world examples to help analyze the root causes of issues, which is essential for effective troubleshooting.
This training course will feature:
- Heat Exchangers Design Characteristics
- Understanding of Heat Transfer principles
- International Codes and Standards for fabrication, operation and maintenance
- Problems in operation: Fouling and performance monitoring
- Inspection of corrosion, erosion and structural integrity
