This tool calculates the mean metal temperatures for different components of a heat exchanger using input parameters like fluid temperatures, heat transfer coefficients, fouling resistances, geometry and material properties. The results show the tube mean metal temperature as 259.0°F, shell mean metal temperature as 269.0°F, tubesheet mean temperature on the tubed side as 232.9°F and on the un-tubed side as 249.5°F.
