#### Description

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,](/courses/101-ntop-essentials/) [220: Intro to Field Driven Design,](/courses/220-intro-to-field-driven-design/) [321: Intermediate Field Driven Design](/courses/321-intermediate-field-driven-design/)**,**[Intro to Two-Channel Heat Exchangers](/courses/intro-to-two-channel-heat-exchangers-in-ntop/)

**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
