When does a pinch analysis make sense to use?

A pinch analysis is used for retrofit tasks and new construction projects. For new construction projects, the pinch analysis should, if possible, be carried out in the concept phase so that the derived concepts can be incorporated into the planning. This method can be applied to continuous processes as well as to discontinuously operated systems. In principle, the operation of the system is not restrictive. Carrying out pinch analyzes on discontinuous systems is more demanding and usually more complex.

Below are some common cases where pinch analysis makes sense to use:
