This document outlines the design and optimization process of a heat exchanger, detailing the techniques used to adjust input parameters for achieving a target performance ratio (R=1). Key factors such as mass flow rate, baffle spacing, and tube dimensions were analyzed to enhance output. The optimization employed statistical tools like effects plots and Pareto charts to identify critical design factors impacting heat transfer rate. Calculated and desired heat transfer rates are compared, revealing significant insights into system performance and potential adjustments for improving efficiency.

Process of Design and Optimization • Adjust settings of input to achieve R=1 design. • Analyze each factor of design to find factors that will affect output. • Selected mass flow rate through the shell, baffle spacing, tube outer diameter, tube length, and shell inner diameter. • Execute optimization using effects plots, interaction plots, pareto charts, and other statistical optimization tools. • Input optimized results into program to observe results. • Repeat for 2nd run.
Heat Exchanger Pareto Charts • 2nd level correlations were chosen after correlation comparison showed that they had better composite desirability. • All chosen factors are of considerable importance to some response.
Effects Plots for Chosen Factors • Chosen factors not removable due to considerable affect on system outputs. • Factors chosen based on analysis of each individual factor.
