This software is written based on chapter 10 ( Mixing and Agitation ) of Chemical Process Equipm Stanly M.

Walas) to calculate heat transfer cofficent ,heat-up & cool-down time in agitator. Instruction :

Available data should be put in Agitator Specification & Mixture properties tables and related resul Also following releations & data are used in calculations : Tc = ( Ti + Tf ) / 2 Tc Ti Tf mixture mean temperature Initial temperature Final temperatureafter

Tw = Tc + ( h utility / ( h utility + h mixture ) )

Tw Wall Temperature h utility Utility side heat transfer coefficen h mixture Mixture side heat transfer coeffice T utility Utility fluid temperature

I was wondering if you let me know about your suggestions. S. Seidi Process Enigeneer mail: saeed.seidi@gmail.com

s tables and related results will be seen in Result table.
