Issues regarding the installation of shell-and-tube heat exchangers

2012-01-17View Original

Thread Content

A certain heat exchanger is installed using concrete embedded foot bolts; after it is lifted into place, alignment, leveling, and adjustment of its elevation are required. Shims are needed at this time; are there any requirements regarding the thickness and material of these shims? Is secondary grouting necessary? Which part is grouted during secondary grouting? Is it needed below the sliding plane?

It should be the same material as the thigh part, I guess.

If the quality of civil construction is good, shims are not required. But when shims are needed, their thickness is only a few millimeters to around 10 millimeters; otherwise, it indicates that the civil engineering work is of poor quality. Ordinary steel plates can be used for the material. Shims do not require secondary grouting. Secondary grouting is the grouting of embedded bolts. It should be below the sliding plane.
