When two single-wave expansion joints are used together in a fixed-tube-sheet heat exchanger, how should the axial stiffness and displacement values be entered?

Help: When two standard single-wave expansion joints are used together in a fixed-tube-sheet heat exchanger, how should the axial stiffness and displacement be calculated? (The single-wave displacement and stiffness of a standard expansion joint are known)
Just use a double-wave expansion joint directly; there’s no need to go through the extra hassle.
Simply select dual waves; leave axial stiffness and displacement unchanged
I think the stiffness and displacement can be X2.
