How to cut the boiler tube sheet
Thread Content
How to cut the boiler tube sheet. How to calculate empirical formulas. Also, how to draw diagrams? Can experts use 3D representations?
You mean the arch-shaped tube sheet, right? The cutting dimensions are generally provided by the manufacturers of stamped end caps; since each manufacturer has a different level of craftsmanship, the amount of material that needs to be reserved varies, though the differences are not significant. The plan view can be drawn using the data sheets provided by the stamping manufacturer; the shape of the ellipse at each cutting point is different (although it is symmetrical left and right). Three-dimensional drawings are only created for stress analysis, as they are not necessary in production.
I want to draw a 3D boiler, but I don’t know how to draw the cover – that arch-shaped cover. :'(
