    This project involves the modeling, design, and analysis of a heat exchanger system using the concepts of conduction, convection, thermal capacitance, conservation of energy, and numerical techniques. In this work, the heat transfer process for the heat exchanger roll system is analyzed in one dimension based on the "simplified transient conduction into a semi-infinite medium model."[1-3] Numerical techniques are used to develop and construct a software program with a graphical user interface (GUI). Using Visual Basic (version 6.0), the developed software program calculates the temperatures, the direction of heat transfer, and internal fluid flow rates. The end-user first needs to specify the required numerical inputs based on the application in order to properly perform a heat transfer analysis.
    This paper discusses the testing apparatus, its significance in gathering accurate temperature data, and how the experimental temperature was obtained. It also details the high correlation that exists between the simulated predictions with the experimental trials replicating real web converting conditions. Finally, this work concludes with recommendations for future work.
    This main purpose of this project was to assist the roll manufacturer in heat exchanger roll quoting, analysis, and design. The overall software simulation viability as it is developed will depend on how the roll manufacturer markets this information to the web converting industry.
