» Applying neural networks to HTRI

We continue to expand our research capabilities to bring our members the latest information about heat transfer and process technology. Our Research & Technology Center houses physical test units, while our computational fluid dynamics simulations complement our experimental program and identify and resolve operational issues of heat exchangers. A new component of our research program involves the application of neural networks to heat transfer predictions.
