Abstract
En 中文
This research paper delves into designing heat exchangers using a user-friendly and robust GUI-based program developed using Python as a computational tool. In addition, various design methods such as LMTD and EDTR have been used, including the Kern and Bell-Delaware methods. The results showed that the EDTR method is a promising alternative design tool compared to traditional ones. This comparative analysis highlights the accuracy, efficiency, and potential advantages of the EDTR method in contrast to the LMTD approach. Complex, iterative, and time-intensive manual calculation challenges were mitigated using Python programming. This computational approach significantly streamlined the calculation process and reduced the required time and effort, ensuring precise and reliable results. The study demonstrated the potential of the EDTR method as an efficient and accurate alternative to the traditional LMTD approach.
