Purpose

There are several pretty good heat transfer programs on the market to design heat transfer equipment, but they are not cheap for individual needs
and require an extensive training in the use of a particular software
and a certain experience in heat transfer field. They usually cover a vast field of heat exchangers, many types and applications.
This makes very difficult to navigate through the software and select a right application and methods.
The warnings and errors given by the programs are mostly generalized, sometimes vague and often irrelevant to the application the user trying to run.
It is very difficult for the person without substantial training and experience to fix the problems that the warnings or errors assert.
This software does not display errors, the software takes care of it, not allowing
the program to run on wrong data or assumption in most cases, but it does not relieve the user from responsibility for the result if the wrong output happens.
The program has a number of warnings; they all listed in the ‘Help’ page with brief explanations and the way to fix them.
The program has flexibility to optimize the results by changing input in the ‘Construction’ section of the ‘Home’ page.
The software does not cover the control system of the equipment in any way.
