How does the Heat Exchanger Calculator work?

Calculate: Q = U×A×ΔT_lm (log mean temperature difference) Then: Account for flow arrangement (counterflow, cross-flow, parallel) Then: Size area for required heat transfer.

Can you give an example of how to use the Heat Exchanger Calculator?

Example: Input Q = 50 kW, U = 2000 W/m²·K, ΔT_lm = 10 K gives a result of A ≈ 2.5 m² required (Determines exchanger size).

Is the Heat Exchanger Calculator free to use?

Yes — completely free with no registration, download, or subscription required. All calculations happen instantly in your browser.
