Dears,
In the below article which is dated 2006, it is mentioned:
"The first task is to generate a white paper assessing current knowledge and describing the key steps required to improve the application of heat exchanger thermal design margins. This will be accomplished by the end of calendar year 2005. In addition, research projects needed to improve the confidence in the analysis of thermal design margins will be identified and implemented during 2006.
Such an effort, including global participation by experts in the process industries, is required to shift the approach used during the past decades and make significant progress in improved heat exchanger design. For more information or to express interest in participating in this Exchanger Design Margin Task Force (EDMTF), contact HTRI at EDMTF@HTRI.net."
Does anyone know what the outcomes of this analysis have been? if yes, I would appreciate sharing some knowledge about it (papers, reports, websites... etc.).
Regards,
