A software for the thermal and hydraulic design of shell and tube heat exchangers with flowinduced vibration checks has been developed in a Windows-based Delphi programming environment. Its user-friendly input format and excellent colour graphics features make it an excellent tool for the teaching, learning and preliminary design of shell and tube heat exchangers. Design methodology is based on the open literature Delaware method while flow-induced vibration calculations adhere closely to the methodology prescribed by the latest TEMA standards for industry practice. It is hoped that the software will bridge the gap between the teaching of
engineering fundamentals and the existing industry practice of shell and tube heat exchanger design.
