Game Info

Feel the wind in your face, the deck beneath your feet and the salt on your lips.

Seafarer: The Ship Sim is in Early Access. We’d love for you to come aboard and launch your maritime career with us. The world, the ships, and the systems will grow update by update, and you’re invited to watch and shape that journey as it happens.

We want you to enjoy life at sea. This isn't a high-realism work training simulator in which you have to memorise every bolt or tick off endless checklists before you even start the engine. Our goal is simple: Take things at your own pace on a huge open map. Follow a career path or jump straight into the action in quick play. It’s your call. htri heat exchanger design top

No two days on the water are the same. Calm sunrises over quiet seas can turn into rough storms without warning. Dynamic waves, changing weather, and unexpected encounters make every voyage feel a little different and, hopefully, memorable.

Choose from a growing fleet of vessels that range from small work boats to true giants of the sea. Patrol harbours and coastlines, load containers and bulk cargo with massive cranes, transport delicate LNG, answer distress calls, rescue stranded crews, fight fires, salvage lost freight, or guide huge ships safely into dock. | Side | ΔP (kPa) | Allowable (kPa)

Or simply just enjoy the view from the bridge and snap a few pics.

Check out the roadmap to see what’s coming next. New vessels and features are on the way, while existing systems continue to be refined and polished. Multiplayer and ship customisation are also on the horizon. HTRI provides two powerful tools to analyze and

Set sail today.

Early Access means we’re building this together. Your feedback, ideas, and reports genuinely help plot the course ahead. Join us on this voyage through the sometimes stormy seas of development and let’s aim for smooth sailing toward full release.

HTRI is the industry hammer. It is heavy, expensive, and requires training to swing, but if you need to drive a nail into concrete (design a critical heat exchanger), it is the only tool that guarantees it won't bend.

Flow-induced vibration can lead to catastrophic tube failure. HTRI provides two powerful tools to analyze and mitigate this risk.

Heat Transfer Research, Inc. (HTRI) is the global gold standard for heat exchanger design, rating, and simulation. Achieving an optimized, cost-effective, and thermally efficient design requires a deep understanding of HTRI’s software suite, particularly Xchanger Suite.
