Abstract

A method is developed to determine the shell and tube side heat transfer performance of a feedwater heater with a short drain cooler. The desuperheating, condensing, and drain cooling zones are discussed and analyzed by deriving a modified version of the Delaware Method of Shell-Side Design.
