Default Flat Plate Sizing...

Hey, I have a dandy program for you Sheephead, in case you ever want to get your feet wet and experiment with water loops...

Here's a brazed plate sizing program for refrigeration:

FlatPlateSelect

You have to give them somebody's name & email, etc., but it seems to work pretty damn well.

It's pretty interesting, when you plug in various values and then see how it affects the results, you really begin to understandow this stuff works.

You should know by looking at my heat pump on the first page of this thread, this is not a beauty contest.
