Aspen EDR V15.1 | Rigorous Heat Exchanger Design, Rating & Simulation Software

Aspen EDR (Exchanger Design and Rating) V15.1 is a suite of integrated programs for the rigorous thermal and mechanical design, simulation, and performance analysis of shell-and-tube, air-cooled, plate-and-frame, and other heat exchanger types. It is a key component within the AspenTech engineering suite for process design.

Core Functionality Overview:

• Comprehensive Heat Exchanger Design & Rating: Performs detailed thermal and hydraulic calculations for a wide range of exchanger types, including rigorous mechanical design per TEMA, ASME, and API standards.

• Integrated Process Simulation Workflow: Seamlessly exchanges data with Aspen HYSYS and Aspen Plus, enabling heat exchanger design within the context of the overall process simulation for accurate system performance.

• Performance Monitoring & Troubleshooting: Rates existing exchangers against current operating conditions to identify fouling, assess performance degradation, and suggest retrofit or cleaning schedules.
