Aspen Shell & Tube Exchanger

(formerly Aspen Tasc+®)

Design, checking, and simulation of shell & tube, double pipe, or multi-tube hairpin exchangers.

Aspen Shell & Tube Exchanger performs the design for all major industrial shell & tube exchanger equipment types and applications, including single phase, condensation, and evaporation.

Features

• Research-Based Correlations: Models and correlations are based on more than 35 years of Aspen HTFS proprietary research, providing the user with assurance of reliable designs.
• Optimized Designs: Aspen Shell & Tube Exchanger automates the design optimization process, allowing for cost savings of up to 30% or more.
• Physical Properties: Properties can be transferred from AspenTech’s steady-state simulators, or retrieved from Aspen Properties®, Aspen HYSYS Thermodynamics COM Interface, or the heritage Aspen B-JAC™ database. More than 15,000 components and 30 vapor liquid equilibrium methods are available.
• Flow-Induced Vibration Checks: Rigorous HTFS research validated checks, as well as checks with the TEMA method, are used to identify vibration problems for shell-side process streams.
• Graphics: Fully dimensioned setting plan and interactive tubesheet layout are available.
• Integrated with Aspen Plus® & Aspen HYSYS®: High-level run-time integration enables engineers to rigorously model heat exchanger operation and identify capital savings opportunities within the context of the overall process.
• Thermal and Mechanical Integration: Bi-directional integration with Aspen Shell & Tube Mechanical allows for efficient optimization to thermal and mechanical constraints.

Benefits

• Improved Design: Provides optimized equipment designs for a given set of process conditions, resulting in typical savings of 10-30% on the equipment cost per heat exchanger.
• Improved Process Operations: Integration with process simulators allows for studies to be conducted resulting in reduced energy and operational costs.
• Increased Engineering Efficiency: Enables increased emphasis on fast-track, front-end engineering through fully integrated tools for process design, exchanger thermal sizing, exchanger mechanical design, cost estimation, and drawings production, which are pre-requisite for cost effective projects.
