The equations include the effects of shellside enhancement and fouling and are applicable to roughness and internally finned tubes. Detailed procedures are outlined to calculate the performance improvement and to select the `optimum' surface geometry. PEC are presented for four design cases:(1) reduced heat exchanger material; (2) increased heat duty; (3) reduced log-mean temperature difference; and (4) reduced pumping power. The 11 cases discussed include fixed flow area and variable flow area. Appropriate PEC for two-phase exchangers area also discussed.
