This sample is of a typical fixed tubesheet shell and tube heat exchanger. The exchanger has been designed and calculated in accordance with Part UHX of ASME Section VIII Division I. ASME requires analysis of seven separate load cases on fixed tubesheet exchangers. The cases are made up using all combinations of tube side and shell side design pressures and loadings due to thermal expansion. Shell, tube and tubesheet calculations for all load cases were analyzed using PVElite software. Sample calculations and the drawing can be opened using the links below. |
