However this unit consumes a lot of energy compared to other units. One of the factors contributes to this problem is due to the inefficiency of several equipments inside the unit. One of the equipment is Main Cryogenic Heat Exchanger (MCHE). This equipment plays an important role for the overall performance of liquefaction unit, yet there are only a few studies done especially in terms of its internal performance of MCHE. Therefore, simulation is a best way in analyzing the phenomena that take inside the MCHE. This paper shows a research study in progress for simulating the heat exchanger which is a Spiral Wound Heat Exchanger (SWHE). In addition, it emphasizes on the details that involves in the modeling will be presented as well. © 2011 IEEE. date: 2011 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84857097640&doi=10.1109%2fNatPC.2011.6136278&partnerID=40&md5=82fe8491e0dc13527dc5da1307f793ea id_number: 10.1109/NatPC.2011.6136278 full_text_status: none publication: 2011 National Postgraduate Conference - Energy and Sustainability: Exploring the Innovative Minds, NPC 2011 place_of_pub: Perak refereed: TRUE isbn: 9781457718847 citation: Abidin, M.Z.Z. and Nour, U.M. and Shaari, K.Z.K.
