What Does HEN Stand For?
HEN stands for Heat Exchanger Network
HEN, or Heat Exchanger Network, refers to a system of interconnected heat exchangers designed to maximize energy efficiency in industrial processes. By facilitating the transfer of thermal energy between different process streams, HENs minimize energy consumption, reduce utility costs, and lower environmental impact. The optimization of these networks plays a crucial role in process design and energy management, supporting sustainability initiatives and improving overall system performance.
