:: Heat transfer requirement = input energy lost to heat 1 HP = 2545 BTU/HR
:: Performance curves based on Inlet Temperature Difference (ITD) of 50°F ITD = (Inlet temperature of hot liquid) - (Ambient temperature of air)
:: If ITD is not 50°F: Heat transfer requirement = Input energy lost to heat x 50°F
STEP 3
Select curve for heat exchanger model at or above heat transfer requirement
Plotted pressure drop (PSID) values based on viscosity of 50 SSU. If viscosity is not 50 SSU, multiply PSID value by tabulated multiplier to obtain estimate of actual PSID:
