Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical design and fabrication of shell-and-tube heat exchangers in the United States
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors introduce basic aspects of the mechanical design and fabrication of shell-and-tube heat exchangers and present a broad-brush approach to the problem of heat exchanger fabrication.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pressure Vessels—Let the Tubes Support the Tube Sheet
G. D. Galletly,C. R. Garbett +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of tube bowing, in-place forces, and transient thermal effects are investigated in tube sheet thichkness and the effect of tube bundling on tube sheet economics is investigated.

Design of Perforated Plates
W. J. O’Donnell,B. F. Langer +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a method for calculating stresses and deflections in perforated plates with a triangular penetration pattern is discussed, based partly on theory and partly on experiment, and the average ligament stresses were obtained from purely theoretical considerations but effective elastic constants and peak stresses were derived from strain measurements and photoelastic tests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Design of Bolted, Flanged Joints of Pressure Vessels:
G. F. Lake,G. Boyd +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis of the stress distribution in bolted flanged joints of pressure vessels is presented, and a design procedure for such joints based on the analysis is presented. But the analysis does not consider the elasticity of the joints and does not account for the fact that parts of the joint assembly yield plastically.

Alternate Design Charts for Fixed Tubesheet Design Procedure Included in ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section VIII, Division 1
TL;DR: In this article, the design formulas and calculation procedure for the design of fixed tubesheets of shell and tube heat exchangers are included in Appendix AA, Section 8, Division 1.
Journal ArticleDOI
Heat-Exchanger Tube-Sheet Design—3. U-Tube and Bayonet-Tube Sheets
TL;DR: In this paper, the strengthening effect of tube bending reaction is investigated, evaluated quantitatively, and presented in the form of simple design factors, which are functions of a parameter ua, a measure of the relative "barreling" rigidity of the tube bundle as compared to the flexural rigidity.
