How to select expansion joints
Thread Content
The floating-head heat exchanger is intended to be converted to a fixed-coil type, and expansion joints need to be installed in the shell side; I’m not sure how to choose the appropriate type. Specific parameters:Cylinder: Material – Q245R; wall thickness – 10; outer diameter – 500; length – 4800; design pressure – 0.6 Mpa; design temperature – 350°C; medium – heat transfer oil.
Tube side: Carbon steel; non-corrosive organic liquid; design pressure is also 6 kg. I would appreciate some advice from those with more experience! How to select this expansion joint.
