Condenser Design 1.0 will prove to be a beneficial as well as reliable software that is created to help you demonstrate thermal analysis and design calculations required for designing shell and tube condensers. This software can design, horizontal shell side condensers, horizontal tube side condensers, vertical shell side condensers, vertical tube side condensers and reflux condensers. This software application is intended for use by professional and academics in the engineering industry. Some basic understanding in thermodynamics, fluid flow and shell & tube heat exchangers is required before attempting to use this tool.

Major Features:

1. Support S.I Units and English (U.S) Units of measurement
2. Import physical properties data to hot side and cold side from Microsoft Excel & from WeBBusterZ Physical properties database (included!)
3. Save/Load results
4. Results
5. Export Results to Engineering Data sheet in Microsoft Excel for editing
6. Export Results summary to Microsoft Word or Print Results summary.
7. Calculations
8. Supports Horizontal shell side/Horizontal tube side/Vertical shell side/Vertical tube side and Reflux condensers design. 
9. Supports Full condensation and Partial condensation (Subject to condensation model selection please see the table provided below for full information).
