Heat Transfer in Process Engineering
by: Eduardo Cao
Abstract: An in-depth look at one of the most important aspects of the chemical process industry This book comprehensively covers the theoretical principles and practical applications of heat transfer in equipment design for the chemical, petrochemical, and refining industry. It includes modern and simple calculation tools for different types of heat exchangers, reboilers, condensers, fired heaters, and air coolers. Heat Transfer in Process Engineering provides the necessary information to understand and make efficient use of the high cost design software available in the market. The book also contains more than 300 drawings, tables and charts as well as downloadable spreadsheets which are useful for process equipment design .
