Hazardous Area Electrical Process Heaters & Control Solutions Computational Flow Analysis EXHEAT’s all-encompassing Computational Flow Dynamics (CFD) and Finite Element Analysis (FEA) offers a variety of computational solutions for your process analysis requirements. By utilising CFD/FEA studies during the early stages of a project, be it pre-FEED, during the main FEED study or detailed design stages, EXHEAT can assist with tailoring your thermal requirements and assisting with the design and specification of your process heaters. Should this lead to an order for our heaters, EXHEAT would be able to provide the heater as designed in a timely manner due to the prior involvement. The analysis are not limited to just EXHEAT heaters but can be increased to include upstream and downstream pipework to confirm acceptable design, whether there is enough insulation to maintain a process temperature or if adding some additional pipework will increase the pressure drop. Slice: Velocity Magnitude (m/s) TYPICAL ANALYSIS The advanced post processing capability that EXHEAT can offer will allow you to clearly visualise the results, whether they show the velocity through a heater, the surface temperature of elements or even pressure variance due to the baffled flow design implemented on many heaters. Normal operation thermals Low or zero flow fault condition Heat loss along an outlet pipe Design temperature selection Tank heat up time or running temperatures A comprehensive report will be produced that provides details of the information used to run the simulation, including process and geometry, output values, tables or images, depending on the analysis completed. Each report will be tailored to the analysis run and offer calculated results which can be used to affect the design of the heater or pipework should they be required to.

Hazardous Area Electrical Process Heaters & Control Solutions EXHEAT has already utilised the simulation packages to refine the design of process heaters by ensuring items such as the baffle pitches are optimised for the specific process, element temperatures remain at acceptable levels under normal operation, and the heat transfer is sufficient for process requirement. AVAILABLE SOLUTIONS Normal Operation EXHEAT can simulate a heater running in normal operation and demonstrate that the appropriate design has been created for the heater. This will include such things as baffle pitches and form...
