Q. How do I design a stacked heat exchanger?
Ans: In the "Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger Properties" dialog box, check the field "Stacked" as shown, also make sure the inlet outlet options are correctly selected as show:
Model the rest of the project as if you are designing a single exchanger, selecting the "Stacked" option would automatically create 2 identical exchangers stacked on top of each other as shown below:
In case the saddles do not appear for the bottom or top exchanger, open both saddles and select both the SB and ST options and click OK.
