Noted the geometric features and the thermodynamic condition, Sierra Studio can display the performance of the heat exchangers.
Geometry
Setup of the geometrical features of heat exchanger (e.g. tube type, fin spacing, etc.).
Thermodynamic features
Setup of the thermodynamic condition of air (e.g. inlet air temperature) and internal fluid condition (e.g. inlet fluid temperature) of the heat exchanger.
Processing
Calculations of all the thermo-fluidynamic features of heat exchanger.
Results
Displays the thermodynamic features of the heat exchanger. It can exports the data on PDF/Excel format.

Baseline definition
It defines the geometric and thermodynamics of the reference heat exchanger.
Parameteric definition
Setup of the variables to change.
Processing
Calculation of the combinations referred to the parametric variables.
Results
The results are displayed by tables and graphs format.
Sierra Studio proposes the best heat exchangers according to the Customer’s needs and allow the Customer to choose the most suitable.
Geometric constrains
Setup of the possible heat exchangers dimensions.
Thermodynamic conditions
