GAS FIRED HEATER INSULATED PIPE

A client in the petrochemical industry sought help with regards to a fired heater employed on a plant. The client wished to perform thermal fatigue and stress analysis on the heater, especially during transient operating conditions such as start-up and on-off cyclic operations, where the possibility for large temperature gradients exists.

“Flownex® enabled the prediction of the 2-D transient temperature gradients which were so crucial to this project. I am not aware of any other tool with which I could have obtained the required results in such a short time span. Part of the success must undoubtedly be attributed to the prompt and high level support provided by Flownex® International almost daily in answering all my questions and offering suggestions throughout this very technically challenging simulation. The support fee has been paid for with this one project!"
