Xvib™ Introduction HTRI introduces the latest Xchanger Suite component in this new workshop. Because vibration can cause critical operating problems in heat exchangers, it is important to analyze the potential for flow-induced vibration. This workshop workshop teaches you how to develop an input file, interpret results, and obtain accurate prediction of the vibration potential for installed units. Using X vib vib you’ll practice determining if a heat exchanger is susceptible to vibration damage.
