Major components of design of an AES type heat exchanger is carried out using PV-Elite, a PC based software exclusively programmed for designing various process equipments. The objective of designing a heat exchanger using PV-Elite is to minimize the calculation time and errors. In practical, the usage of this software reduces the time consumed by about 50%.The input data required for the software are the outputs of thermal design such as working fluid, working pressure, working temperature, design pressure, design temperature, corrosion allowance, material specification, etc. The mechanical calculations such as internal pressure, external pressure, flange calculation, vessel calculation, etc. will be performed by the software and is obtained a printed format after completing the design process.
