This lecture focuses on calculating the real value at the system level needed for maximum heat recovery, by reformulating the tradeoff between CAPEX, savings in utilities, and investment in heat exchangers. The instructor explains how to approximate the value of delta T minimum, apply graph theory to determine the minimum number of connections for heat exchangers, and optimize the delta T minimum for economic feasibility.
