I have a question regarding the calculation of fixed tube sheets in SW6

For SW6 fixed-plate heat exchangers, when calculating the plate, if expansion joints are required, should the stiffness value of those expansion joints in the plate calculation be based on their properties before corrosion or after corrosion?

Calculations are required before and after corrosion

The stiffness changes before and after corrosion; therefore, it needs to be calculated in both cases

The stiffness of the expansion joint has a significant impact on the calculation results for the tube sheet; you can simulate several different thicknesses using your own calculation model to see this for yourself. Therefore, when expansion joints are present, the corrosion margin also needs to be calculated.
