PHex is an easy to use tool which demonstrates the thermal calculations of Gasketed Plate Heat Exchangers, The plate dimensions and materials can be entered, this includes the size of plate heat exchanger and chevron angle. List of main features: 1. Support S.I Units and English (U.S) Units of measurement 2. Unit converter containing 23 measurements with 200-unit conversion. 3. Full version includes manufacturers plate database containing over 230 plates. 4. Import physical properties data to hot side & cold side from Microsoft Excel & from WeBBusterZ Physical properties database (included with full version) 5. Export Results to Engineering Data sheet, pdf or excel format 6. Temperature and Flow rate estimation in the event of insufficient data. including the ability to estimate any 2 Unknown temperatures providing that the Heat load and flow rates are specified as input. 7.
