This training walks you through how to create a two-channel heat exchanger with fields. While more This training walks you through how to create a two-channel heat exchanger with fields. While more complex than using the TPMS blocks, fields allow for more control of the heat exchanger design.   Prerequisites: 101: nTop Essentials, 220: Intro to Field Driven Design, 321: Intermediate Field Driven Design, Intro to Two-Channel Heat Exchangers What is  Covered:
  • Understanding the difference between blocks and fields
  • Creating a single channel heat exchanger with fields
  • How to change the bias and wall thickness of a heat exchanger
  • How to add baffles or caps to regions of the HEX Core
