Who Should Attend

 

This course is design for:

- Developees (mechanical, Process, Planning & Vibration Engineers and supervisors)

- Project engineers, process engineers and plant engineers in the oil, chemical, sugar, power, and other industries that requires a wider and deeper appreciation of heat exchangers design, performance and operation.

- The detailed review of thermal and mechanical design is particularly useful to plant and maintenance engineers as well as to those generally knowledge able in the subject, but who require a refresher or update.

- Codes and standards are useful for project engineer to help him communicate with manufacturers, designers and bidders of heat exchangers.

Troubleshooting procedures are important for process engineers.
