Many machines, and almost all industrial processes, require some form of heat transfer. Designing machinery to transfer heat in an efficient and safe manner is not a 'nice-to-have', it's a necessity. Despite the numerous processes that require heat transfer, only two heat exchangers are commonly used today, the shell and tube type, and the plate type. This course covers the plate heat exchanger in great detail. You will learn:
All of a plate heat exchanger's components.
How plate heat exchangers work.
Different plate heat exchanger designs.
How to vary the cooling capacity of a plate heat exchanger.
Tips and tricks when assembling and disassembling a plate heat exchanger.
Maintenance tasks associated with a plate heat exchanger.
Advantages and disadvantages associated with a plate heat exchanger.
This course gives you all the fundamental understanding you need about the plate heat exchanger and can also be used later as a refresher course. Whatever your level of understanding, or engineering background (mechanical engineering, HVAC, chemical engineering, oil & gas industry, power engineering, etc.), this course will provide you with a strong understanding of plate heat exchangers and their details.
Interactive 3D models are used extensively to show you all of a plate heat exchanger's components and how it works.

Who should attend this course
This course is designed for Piping Designers, Pipe Stress Engineers, Mechanical Engineers, Process Engineers, or Maintenance Engineers with 0-3 yrs of experience.
This course is beneficial for anyone in the oil & gas, HVAC, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, or power engineering industries.
Prerequisites:
Some background mechanical engineering or HVAC knowledge is of benefit, but is not essential.
Other engineering background knowledge (chemical engineering, oil and gas industry etc.) would be beneficial but is not essential.
Level: Foundation
Access to the course.
After your purchase is confirmed you receive an account to the EngineeringTrainer online learning portal, where you find the course in your dashboard. After opening the course you will be guided step-by-step through the different modules. You receive 1-year unlimited access to the course. This allows you to perform modules again if this is beneficial for your work projects.
The course is mainly based on video content: video lectures and interactve 3D model video demonstrations. The course is packed with 2D images, 2D animations and 3D animations. Interactive 3D models are used extensively to show you exactly how valves and their components work. English subtitles are available and videos can be viewed as many times as desired. The video lectures help you to grasp the important technical concepts.
This course is self-paced and is not subject to specific dates. The course contains 3 modules with a total of 1.5 hours of content which can be performed at your own pace. A Personal Certificate will be provided to you if you finish the course within the first month after starting. This incentive will motivate you to perform the course quickly thereby improving your learning curve.
You receive 1-year unlimited access to all 3 modules. This allows you to perform modules again whenever you want to refresh knowledge for your daily work projects.
A personal digital certificate will be made available to participants based on the following requirement:
finish the course within the first month after starting. This incentive will motivate you to perform the course quickly thereby improving your learning curve.
