Method for determining the maximum allowable operating pressure of the tube sheet
Thread Content
As the title suggests, when determining the maximum allowable operating pressure of the tube sheet in one chamber, what pressure should be set for the other chamber? In other words, for example, when determining the maximum allowable operating pressure of the tube bank, the influence of the tube sheet must be taken into account. When determining the maximum allowable operating pressure of the tube sheet, a pressure higher than the design pressure must be set, and then it is necessary to check whether the stresses in the tube sheet are within acceptable limits, until the highest suitable pressure is found. So, in this case, what should the design pressure for the shell side be?
Has no one ever dealt with this aspect?
