2.5. Performance


The entered performance means the heat flow to be transferred from the warmer medium to the colder medium.

The performance is calculated from the result of the logarithmic mean temperature difference,

the heat transfer coefficient and the heat-exchanging surface.

Short form: Q = K * A * Δ Tm

That means you can increase or reduce performance by changing one of these factors. Performance can be entered in different units, which can be displayed by means of the list fields. Choose the requested unit.

Following units are available:

W; kW; MW; kcal/h; BTU/hr; kJ/s
