In the calculations for fixed tube sheets, the axial stress of the shell, the axial stress of the heat exchange tubes, and the pulling force q between the heat exchange tubes and the tube sheet are determined under various operating conditions with temperature differences. If any of these values fails to meet the strength (or stability) requirements, it is necessary to install expansion joints. In the strength verification calculations for fixed tube sheets, once the thickness of the tube sheet is determined, if no expansion joints are used, the strength of the tube sheet may be insufficient; however, by installing expansion joints, the required thickness for the tube sheet can be achieved. At this time, expansion joints can also be installed to thin the tube sheet, but the decision should be based on a comprehensive evaluation of factors such as material consumption, manufacturing difficulty, safety, and economic efficiency.
