Session 5-1 Application of Excel in Solving Heat Exchanger Problems Amir Karimi The University of Texas at San Antonio AbstractIntroduction to heat exchanger analysis and design is an excellent vehicle for providing studentsan educational experience in practical application of heat transfer concepts in an undergraduateheat transfer course. Heat transfer textbooks commonly provide a brief coverage of heatexchangers, which contain detailed heat transfer analysis for parallel-flow and counter-flow heatexchangers. For some of the more complex flow

As a result, undergraduate students do notacquire a solid foundation in CAE technology that they can build upon during the courseof their careers. Our pedagogical approach for integrating CAE software into courses hasthree key elements. First, the CAE experience revolves around a series of case studies inwhich students use CAE software to simulate
