Abstract (en)
A method can comprise dividing a heat exchanger design into a plurality of modules (10), the plurality of modules (10) arranged in a grid, each module in the plurality of modules (10) including: a first fluid conduit (161) defining an inlet (1611), an outlet (1612), and a heat-transfer surface (602), and a first flow direction, and a second fluid conduit (162) defining a second inlet, a second outlet, a second heat-transfer surface, and a second flow direction, the second flow direction different from the first flow direction; and determining a heat-transfer augmenter arrangement (1161) for the first fluid conduit (161) and the second fluid conduit (162) of each module in the plurality of modules (10) based on a stress threshold of the module (16) in the plurality of modules (10).
