Engineering & Drafting

Good equipment starts with a good design. Alabama Heat Exchangers works closely with clients to produce fast, accurate designs that meet all relevant standards and customer specifications, whether that is ASME, API, ABS or something client specific.

Thermal design with HTRI

As a member of Heat Transfer Research, Inc. (HTRI), we use industry-leading thermal design software and follow TEMA standards to guide many of our exchanger builds. That helps us size equipment for the duty your process actually needs.

Engineering and drafting services

  • Mechanical design to the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code
  • Thermal design support using HTRI software
  • Fabrication drawings
  • Engineering for repairs, alterations and re-rates
  • Designs to API, ABS and customer-specific standards

Engineering for repairs and re-rates

Engineering is not only for new equipment. We provide the calculations and documentation behind re-rates and code repairs so changes to your equipment are properly supported.
