Heat transfer equipment/systems in chemical plants remain a key challenge in achieving safe, energy efficient and reliable operations. Some specific challenges include: 1. choosing the right type of heat exchanger for various plant applications, 2. insuring long term performance of the heat transfer system and 3. proper design, installation and maintenance of the systems. Towards this end, this session will focus on submissions that describe new heat exchanger design and technology, new applications of existing technology and case studies of improving heat exchanger performance in operating plants.
