FAQ
Questions Pinch Analysis Utilities owners ask.
- 01
How do I find the minimum utility requirements?
You can use the analyze_pinch_targets capability to calculate the minimum hot and cold utility requirements based on your stream data and minimum approach temperature.
- 02
Can I check if my heat exchanger network is valid?
Yes, the check_pinch_violation capability validates whether your design violates pinch rules or the minimum approach temperature constraint.
- 03
Does this capability support stream splitting analysis?
Yes, use evaluate_stream_splitting to determine if dividing a stream's flow rate improves heat recovery or satisfies temperature constraints.
