Heat Exchangers
This online engineering PDH interactive presentation provides an overview of the purpose, construction, and principles of operation of the major types of heat exchangers.
In almost any nuclear, chemical, or mechanical system, heat must be transferred from one place to another or from one fluid to another. Heat exchangers are used to transfer heat from one fluid to another. A basic understanding of the mechanical components of a heat exchanger is important to understanding how they function and operate. Common applications of heat exchangers include boilers, fan coolers, cooling water heat exchangers, and condensers.
This 1 PDH online interactive presentation is applicable to mechanical and chemical engineers, facility operators, maintenance personnel and professionals who are interested in learning more about heat exchangers and their specific applications.
This PE continuing education interactive presentation is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Familiarizing with the basic heat transfer terminology
- Understanding the purpose of heat exchangers
- Learning about the construction and types of heat exchangers
- Gaining an overview of the different heat exchanger applications
