The Simple heater uses the following equation to calculate the duty required or the final temperature of the stream.

(1) [math]\displaystyle{ \mathbf{\mathit{Q=\dot{m}\int Cp\boldsymbol{\Delta}T}} }[/math]
where
Q - Rate of Heat Transfer
[math]\displaystyle{ \mathbf{\mathit{\dot{m}}} }[/math] - mass flow rate
Cp - heat capacity
[math]\displaystyle{ \mathbf{\mathit{\boldsymbol{\Delta}T}} }[/math] - temperature difference
