Condensers are always designed for as low pressure drop as possible. This is what has governed the size of the condenser. Just look at the pressure drop in shell side. ![]() Now problem is why so much overdesign has been provided to the condenser. Therefore, you have done a good job by accurately simulating the existing condenser with HTRI. Overdesign calculated by HTRI (1137.9 %) is pretty good. You can see that HTRI UA is almost 1172.86% higher than the calculated UA. Therefore, calculated UA =Q/ LMTD=2989.55 W/K You can also check your results manually as follows: I have attached the Hysys findings herewith. ![]() I have checked the results with Hysys and they are fairly in agreement with HTRI output.
