KEY FEATURES

Engineered for Precision

Multi-Geometry Modelling

Simulates all standard heat exchanger configurations — fin (Plain, Louvered, Offset Strip, Wavy), tube (Flat, Multiport, Inner Fin, Dimpled), and plate (Chevron, Inner Fin) geometries.

Two-Phase Flow

Handles both single-phase and two-phase flow with natural and synthetic refrigerants including R1234yf, R134a, R744, and R290.

Validated Correlations

Incorporates state-of-the-art theory and empirical correlations validated by extensive test data for reliable thermal-hydraulic performance prediction.

Design Optimisation

Enables rapid design trade-off analysis between thermal performance and pressure drop, optimised for real-world manufacturing constraints.
