About this title

Synopsis

Pinch analysis enables a fast approach to an optimum thermal performance, while bringing new insights and improving the understanding of the nature of various thermodynamic processes in a plant. A graphical pinch based methodology is discussed in this book along with direct case studies of pinch analysis for a given stream data. These case studies mention about the various steps involved in a graphical pinch based analysis. Pinch analysis is supposed to be of limited use in industries, on the contrary pinch technology based methods can be used in many types of chemical as well as agriculture industries. The simple graphical approach used in this book is designed to determine the hot and cold utility targets, and it shares the same intuitive, insight-driven characteristics of pinch analysis techniques. Through the approach followed, pinch point for particular ΔTmin (10 degree Celsius in book) can be easily determined.
