In this study a s/w system(HENSPIN) for the automatic synthesis of HEN(heat exchanger network) was developed based on Pinch Design Method. The synthesized HEN by HENSPIN are satisfying performance targets such as minimum utility usage with as few as possible capital items. The invented network is near optimal in capital and operating cost. It will be used as initial structure for evolution to the structure which has optimal operability.
