NOTES TO USERS OF
THE TEMA STANDARDS
Three classes of Mechanical Standards, R,C and B, reflecting acceptable designs for various service applications arepresented. The user should refer to the definition of each class and choose the one that best fits the specific need.
Corresponding subject matter in the three Mechanical Standards is covered by paragraphs identically numberedexcept for the prefix letter. Paragraph numbers preceded by RCB indicates that all three classes are identical. Anyreference to a specific paragraph must be preceded by the class designation.
The Recommended Good Practice section has been prepared to assist the designer in areas outside the scope of thebasic Standards. Paragraphs in the Standards having additional information in the RGP section are marked with anasterisk (*). The reference paragraph in the RGP section has the identical paragraph number, but with an “RGP” prefix,
It is the intention of the Tubular Exchanger Manufacturers Association that this edition of its Standards may be usedbeginning with the date of issuance, and that its requirements supersede those of the previous edition six monthsfrom such date of issuance, except for heat exchangers contracted for prior to the end of the six month period. Forthis purpose the date of issuance is June 1, 1999.
Questions on interpretation of the TEMA Standards should be formally addressed to the Secretary at TEMA 25 NorthBroadway, Tarrytown, NY 10591. Questions requiring development of new or revised technical Information will onlybe answered through an addendum or a new edition of the Standards.
Upon agreement between purchaserand fabricator, exceptions to TEMA requirements areacceptable. An exchangermay still be considered as meeting TEMA requirements as long as the exception is documented.

HEAT EXCHANGER NOMENCLATURE SECTION 1
N-l SIZE NUMBERING AND TYPE DESIGNATION-RECOMMENDED PRACTICE
It is recommended that heat exchanger size and type be designated by numbers and letters as describedbelow.
N-l.1 SIZE
Sizes of shells (and tube bundles) shall be designated by numbers describing shell (and tube bundle)diameters and tube lengths, as follows:
N-l.11 NOMINAL DIAMETER
The nomina! diameter shall be the inside diameter of the shell in inches (mm), rounded off tothe nearest mteger. For kettle reboilers the nominal diameter shall be the port diameterfollowed by the shell diameter, each rounded off to the nearest integer.
N-1.12 NOMINAL LENGTH
The nominal length shall be the tube length in inches (mm). Tube length for straight tubesshall be taken as the actual overall length. For U-tubes the length shall be taken as theapproximate straight length from end of tube to bend tangent.
N-l.2 TYPE
Type designation shall be by letters describing stationary head, shell (omitted for bundles only), andrear head, in that order, as indicated in Figure N-l .2.
N-l.3 TYPICAL EXAMPLES
N-l .31
Split-ring floating head exchanger w,ith removable channel and cover, single pass shell,2323~A~~ mm) insrdedrameter wrth tubes 16 (4877 mm) long. SIZE 23-192 (5914877)
N-l.32

GENERAL FABRICATION AND PERFORMANCE INFORMATION SECTION 3
DEFINITIONS
Baffle is a device to direct the shell side fluid across the tubes for optimum heat transfer.
Baffle and Suooort Plate Tube Hole Clearance is the diametral difference between the nominal tube CD andthe nominal tube hole diameter in the baffle or support plate.
Conseauential Damaaes are indirect liabilities lying outside the heat exchanger manufacturer’s statedequipment warranty obligations.
DoubleTubesheet Construction is a type of construction in which two (2) spaced tubesheets or equivalent areemployed in lieu of the single tubesheet at one or both ends of the heat exchanger.
Effective Shell and Tube Side Desian Pressures are the resultant load values expressed as uniform pressuresused in the determination of tubesheet thickness for fixed tubesheet heat exchangers and are functions of thenshell side design pressure, the tube side design pressure, the equivalent differential expansion pressure and,the equivalent bolting pressure. ..,
Eauivalent Boltina Pressure is the pressure equivalent resulting from the effects of bolting loads imposed ontubesheets in a fixed tubesheet heat exchanger when the tubesheets are extended for bolting as flangedconnections.
Eauivalent Differential Exoansion Pressure is the pressure equivalent resulting from the effect of tubesheetloadings in a fixed tubesheet heat exchanger imposed by the restraint of differential thermal expansion betweenshell and tubes.
Exoanded Tube Joint is the tube-to-tubesheet joint achieved by mechanical or explosive expansion of the tubeinto the tube hole in the tubesheet.
Expansion Joint “J” Factor is the ratio of the spring rate of the expansion joint to the sum of the axial springrate of the shell and the spring rate of the expansion joint.
Flanae Load Concentration Factors are factors used to compensate for the uneven application of boltingmoments due to large bolt spacing.
Minimumand Maximum Baffleand Suooott Soacinasaredesignlimitationsforthe spacing of bafflesto providefor mechanical integrity and thermal and hydraulic effectiveness of the bundle. The possibility for inducedvibration has not been considered in establishing these values.
Normal Oaeratina Conditions of a shell and tube heat exchanger are the thermal and hydraulic performancerequirements generally specified for sizing the heat exchanger.
Pulsatino Fluid Conditions are conditions of flow generally characterized by rapid fluctuations in pressure andflow rate resulting from sources outside of the heat exchanger.
Seismic Loadings are forces and moments resulting in induced stresses on any member of a heat exchangerdue to pulse mode or complex waveform accelerations to the heat exchanger, such as those resulting fromearthquakes.
Shell and Tube Mean Metal Temoeratures are the average metal temperatures through the shell and tubethicknesses integrated over the length of the heat exchanger for a given steady state operating condition.
Shut-Down Conditions are the conditions of operation which exist from the time of steady state operating,condftions to the time that flow of both process streams has ceased.
.’ Start-Uo Conditions are the conditions of operation which exist from the timethat flow of either or both processstreams is initiated to the time that steady state operating condtions are achieved.Suooort Mate is a device to support the bundle or to reduce unsupported tube span without consideration for
‘.:heat transfer.

INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE SECTION 4
E-l PERFORMANCE OF HEAT EXCHANGERS
Satisfactory operation of heat exchangers can be obtained only from units which are properly designed andhave built-in quality. Correct installation and preventive maintenance are user responsibilities.
‘E-i.1 PERFORMANCE FAILURES
The failure of heat exchanger equipment to perform satisfactorily may be caused by one or morefactors, such as:
(1) Excessive fouling.
(2) Air or gas binding resulting from improper piping installation or lack of suitable vents
(3) Operating condftions differing from design conditions.
(4) Maldistribution of flow in the unit.
(5) Excessive clearances between the baffles and shell and/or tubes, due to corrosion.
(6) Improper thermal design
The user’s best assurance of satisfactory performance lies in dependence upon manufacturerscompetent in the design and fabrication of heat transfer equipment.
E-2 INSTALLATION OF HEAT EXCHANGERS
E-2.1 HEAT EXCHANGER SETTINGS
E-2.11 CLEARANCE FOR DISMANTLING
For straight tube exchangers fitted with removable bundles, provide sufficient clearance at thestationary head end tospace beyond the rear R
ermit removal of the bundle from the shell and provide adequateead to permit removal of the shell cover and/or ffoating head cover.
For fixed tubesheet exchangers, provide sufficient clearance at one end to permit withdrawaland replacement of the tubes, and enough space beyond the head at the opposite end topermit removal of the bonnet or channel cover.
For U-tube heat exchangers, provide sufficient clearance at the stationary head end’to permitwithdrawal of the tube bundle, or at the opposite end to permit removal of the shell.
E-2.12 FOUNDATIONS
Foundations must be adequate so that exchangers will not settle and impose excessivestrains on the exchanger. Foundation bolts should be set to allow for setting inaccuracies. Inconcrete footings, pipe sleeves at least one size larger than bolt diameter slipped over thebolt and cast in place are best for this purpose, as they allow the bolt center to be adjustedafter the foundation has set.
E-2.13 FOUNDATION BOLTS
Foundation bolts should be loosened at one end of the unit to allow free expansion of shells.Slotted holes in suppotts are provided for this purpose.
E-2.14 LEVELINGExchangers must be set level and square so that pipe connections may be made withoutforcing.

E-3 OPERATION OF HEAT EXCHANGERS
E-3.1 DESIGN AND OPERATING CONDITIONS
Equipment must not be operated at conditions which exceed those specified on the name plate(s).
E-3.2 OPERATING PROCEDURES
Before placing any exchanger in operation, reference should be made to the exchanger drawings,specification sheet(s) and name plate(s) for any special instructions. Local safety and healthregulations must be considered. Improper start-up or shut-down sequences, particularly of fixedtubesheet units, may cause leaking of tube-to-tubesheet and/or bolted flanged joints.
E-3.21 START-UP OPERATION
Most exchangers with removable tube bundles may be placed in service by first establishingcirculation of the cold medium, followed by the gradual introduction of the hot medium.During start-up all vent valves should be opened and left open until all passages have beenpurged of air and are completely filled with fluid. For fixed tubesheet exchangers, flutds mustbe introduced in a manner to minimize differential expansion between the shell and tubes.
E-3.22 SHUT-DOWN OPERATION
For exchangers with removable bundles, the units may be shut down by first graduallystopping the flow of the hot medium and then stopping the flow of the cold medium. If it isnecessary to stop the flow of cold medium, the circulation of hot medium through theexchanger should also be stopped. For fixed tubesheet exchangers, the unit must be shutdown in a manner to minimize differential expansion between shell and tubes. When shumngdown the system, all units should be drained completely when there is the possibility offreezing or corrosion damage. To guard against water hammer, condensate should be
‘i 18 Standards Of The Tubular Exchanger Manufacturers Association

when the unit is hot.
E-3.24 BOLTED JOINTS
Heat exchangers are pressure tested before leaving the manufacturer’s shop in accordancewith ASME Code requirements. However, normal relaxing of the gasketed joints may occur inthe interval between testing in the manufacturer’s shop and installation at the jobsite.Therefore, all external bolted joints may require retightening after installation and, ifnecessary, after the exchanger has reached operating temperature.
E-3.25 RECOMMENDED BOLT TIGHTENING PROCEDURE
It is important that all bolted joints be tightened uniformly and in a diametrfcally staggeredpattern, as illustrated in Figure E3.25, except for special high pressure closures when theinstructions of the manufacturer should be followed.
FIGURE E-3.25

IS I *E-4 MAINTENANCE OF HEAT EXCHANGERS
E-4.1 INSPECTION OF UNIT
At regular intervals and as frequently as experience indicates, an examination should be made of theinterior and exterior condition of the unit. Neglect in keeping all tubes clean may result in completestoppage of flow through some tubes which could cause severe thermal strains, leaking tube joints,or structural damage to other components. Sacrificial anodes, when provided, should be inspected
to determine whether they should be cleaned or replaced.
,E-4.11 INDICATIONS OF FOULING
Exchangers subject to fouling or scaling should be cleaned periodically. A light sludge orscale coating on the tube greatly reduces its efficiency. A marked increase in pressure dropand/or reduction in performance usually indicates cleaning is necessary. The umt should firstbe checked for air or vapor binding to confirm that this is not the cause for the reduction inperformance. Since the difficulty of cleaning increases rapidly as the scale thickness ordeposit increases, the intervals between cleanings should not be excessive.
Standards Of The Tubular Exchanger Manufacturers Association 19
SECTION 4 INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
E-4.12 DISASSEMBLY FOR INSPECTION OR CLEANING
Before disassembly, the user must assure himsdf that the unit has been depressurized,vented and drained, neutralized and/or purged of hazardous material.
To inspect the inside of the tubes and also make them accessible for cleaning, the followingprocedures should be used:
(1) Stationary Head End
(a) Type A, C, D & N, remove cover only
(b) Type 6, remove bonnet
(2) Rear Head End
(a) Type L, N & P, remove cover only
(b) Type M, remove bonnet
(c) Type S &T, remove shell cover and floating head cover
(d) Type W, remove channel cover or bonnet
E-4.13 LOCATING TUBE LEAKS
The following procedures may be used to locate perforated or split tubes and leaking jointsbetween tubes and tubesheets. In most cases, the entire front face of each tubesheet will beaccessible for inspection. The point where water escapes indicates a defective tube ortube-to-tubesheet joint.
(l)i;;t; ;;$l.removable channel cover: Remove channel cover and apply hydraulic pressure
(2) Unfts with bonnet type head: For fixed tubesheet units where tubesheets are an integralpart of the shell, remove bonnet and apply hydraulic pressure in the shell. For fixedtubesheet units where tubesheets are not an integral part of the shell and for units withremovable bundles, remove bonnet, re-bolt tubesheet to shell or install test flange or gland,whichever is applicable, and apply hydraulic pressure in the shell. See Figure E-4.13-1 fortypical test flange and test gland.
FIGURE E-4.13-1
(3) Units with Type S or T floating head: Remove channel cover or bonnet, shell cover andfloating head cover. Install test ring and bolt in place with gasket and packing. Applyhydraulic pressure in the shell. A typical test ring is shown in Figure E-4.13-2. When a testring is not available t is possible to locate leaks m the floating head end by removing theshell cover and applying hydraulic pressure in the tubes. Leaking tube joints may then belocated by sighting through the tube lanes. Care must be exercised when testing partiallyassembled exchangers to prevent over extension of expansion joints or overloading oftubes and/or tube-to-tubesheet joints.
(4) Hydrostatic test should be performed so that the temperature of the metal is over 60” F(16OC) unless the materials of construction have a lower nil-ductility transition temperature.

eyebolts, steel rods or cables inserted through tubes and attached to bearing plates may be used.The bundle should be supported on the tube baffles, supports or tubesheets to prevent damage tothe tubes.
Gasket and packing contact surfaces should be protected.
E-4.3 CLEANING TUBE BUNDLES
E-4.31 CLEANING METHODS,~ The heat transfer surfaces of heat exchangers should be kept reasonably clean to assure
satisfactory performance. Convenient means for cleaning should be made available.
Heat exchangers may be cleaned by either chemical or mechanical methods. The methodselected must be the choice of the operator of the plant and will depend on the type ofdeposit and the facilities available in the plant.may be considered:
Following are several cleaning procedures that
(1) Circulating hot wash oil or light distillate through tubes or shell at high velocity mayeffectively remove sludge or similar soft deposits.
(2) Some salt deposits may be washed out by circulating hot fresh water.
(3) Commercial cleaning compounds are available for removing sludge or scale provided hotwash oil or water is not available or does not give satisfactory results.
(4) High pressure water jet cleaning.
(5) Scrapers, rotating wire brushes, and other mechanical means for removing hard scale,coke, or other deposits.

(3) Cleaning compounds must be compatible with the metallurgy of the exchanger.
E-4.4 TUBE EXPANDING
A suitable tube expander should be used to tighten a leaking tube joint. Care should be taken toensure that tubes are not over expanded.
E-4.5 GASKET REPLACEMENT
Gaskets and gasket surfaces should be thoroughly cleaned and should be free of scratches andother defects. Gaskets should be properly positioned before attempting to retighten bolts. It isrecommended that when a heat exchanger is dismantled for any cause, it be reassembled with newgaskets. This will tend to prevent future leaks and/or damage to the gasket seating stirfaces of theheat exchanger. Composition gaskets become dried out and brittle so that they do not alwaysprovide an effective seal when reused.flow to match their contact surfaces.
Metal or metal jacketed gaskets, when compressed initially:In so doing they are work hardened and, if reused, may prowde
an imperfect seal or result in deformation and damage to the gasket contact surfaces of theexchanger.
Bolted joints and flanges are designed for use with the particular type of gasket specified.Substitution of a gasket of different construction or improper dimensions may result in leakage anddamage to gasket surfaces. Therefore, any gasket substitutions should be of compatible design.
Any leakage at a gasketed joint should be rectified and not permitted to persist as it may result indamage to the gasket surfaces.
Metal jacketed type gaskets are widely used. When these are used with a tongue and groove jointwithout a nubbin, the gasket should be installed so that the tongue bears on the seamless side of thegasket jacket. When a nubbin is used, the nubbin should bear on the seamless side.
E-4.6 SPARE AND REPLACEMENT PARTS
The procurement of spare or re lacement parts from the manufacturer will be facilitated if the correctname for the part, as shown in 8ectlon 1, Table N-2, of these Standards is given, together with theserial number, type, size, and other information from the name plate. Replacement parts should bepurchased from the original manufacturer.
E-4.7 PLUGGING OF TUBES
In U-tube heat exchangers, and other exchangers of special design, it may not be feasible to removeand replace defective tubes. Defective tubes may be plugged using commercially available taperedplugs with ferrules or tapered only plugs which may or may not be seal welded. Excessive tubeplugging may result in reduced thermal performance, higher pressure drop, and/or mechanicaldamage. It is the user’s responsibility to remove plugs and neutralize the bundle prior to sending itto a shop for repairs.

Where bend diameters prevent compliance,special provisions in addition to the above shall be made for support of the bends.
RCB-4.55 SPECIAL CASES
When pulsating conditions are specified by the purchaser, unsupported spans shall be asshort as pressure drop restrictions permit. If the span under these circumstances approachesthe maximum permitted by Paragraph RCE-4.52, consideration should be given to alternativeflow arrangements which would permit shorter spans under the same pressure droprestrictions.
RCB-4.56TUBE BUNDLE VIBRATION
Shell side flow may produce exdation forces which result in destructive tube vibrations.Existing predictive correlations are inadequate to insure that any given design will be free ofsuch damage. The vulnerability of an exchanger to flow induced vibration depends on theflow rate, tube and baffle materials, unsupported tube spans, tube field layout, shell diameter,and inlet/outlet configuration. Section 6 of these Standards contains information which is

Forall other gases and vapors, including all nominally saturated vapors, and for liquid vapormixtures, impingement protection is required. I/ is the linear velocity of the fluid in feet persecond (meters per second) and p is its density in pounds per cubic foot (kilograms per cubicmeter). A properly designed diffuser may be used to reduce line velocities at shell entrance.
*RCB-4.62 SHELL OR BUNDLE ENTRANCE AND EXIT AREAS
In no case shall the shell or bundle entrance or exit area produce a value of p V2 in excess of4,000 (5953) where V is the linear velocity of the fluid in feet per second (meters per second)and P is its density in pounds per cubic foot (kilograms per cubic meter).
*RCB-4.621 SHELL ENTRANCE OR EXIT AREA WITH IMPINGEMENT PLATE
When an impingement plate is provided, the flow area shall be considered theunrestricted area between the inside diameter of the shell at the nozzle and the face ofthe impingement plate.
*RCB-4.622 SHELL ENTRANCE OR EXIT AREA WITHOUT IMPINGEMENT PLATE
For determining the area available for flow at the entrance or exit of the shell wherethere is no impingement plate, the flow area between the tubes within the projection ofthe nozzle bore and the actual unrestricted radial flow area from under the nozzle ordome measured between the tube bundle and shell inside diameter may beconsidered.
‘RCB-4.623 BUNDLE ENTRANCE OR EXIT AR’EA WITH IMPINGEMENT PLATE
When an impingement plate is provided under a nozzle, the flow area shall be theunrestricted area between the tubes within the compartments between baffles and/ortubesheet.

RCB-7.166 FIXED TUBESHEETS OF DIFFERING THICKNESSES
The rules presented in Paragraphs RCB-7.161 through RCB-7.165 and RCB-7.2are intended for fixed tubesheet exchangers where both tubesheets are thesame thickness. Conditions can exist where it is appropriate to use tubesheetsof differing thicknesses. These conditions may result from significantly differingelastic moduli and/or allowable stresses. The-following procedure may beused for such cases:
(1) Separate the design parameters as defined in previous paragraphs foreach tubesheet system by assigning subscripts A and B to each of thefollowing terms:Tas7.andT.

Note: Thevaluesofn/i,,M,,F,G,aL,L,,D.,t,,d.,2,E,,E,,Nand S i must remain constant throughout this analysis. If a fixedtubesheet exchanger has different bolting moments at eachtubesheet, the designer should use the values of M , and M zthatproduce the conservative design.

The shell and tube stresses and tube-to-tubesheet joint loads for eachtubesheet system should theoretically~be identical. Small differences mayexist, however, because of rounding the calculated tubesheet thicknessesin step 8. The tube stress and the tube-to-tubesheet joint loads from thetwo systems should be averaged before comparing these values to theallowablevalues as calculated in Paragraph RCB-7.2.

Shell and tube longitudinal stresses, which depend upon the equivalent and effective pressuresdetermined by Paragraphs RCB-7.161 through RCB-7.164, shall be calculated for fixed tubesheetexchangers with or without shell expansion joints by using the following paragraphs. The designershall consider the most adverse operating conditions specified by the purchaser. (See ParagraphE-3.2.)
Note: The formulae and design criteria presented in Paragraphs RCB-7.23 through RCB-7.25consider only the tubes at the periphery of the bundle, which are normally the most highlystressed tubes.

FLOW INDUCED VIBRATION SECTION 6
(Note: This section is not metricated.)
V-l SCOPE AND GENERAL
V-l.1 SCOPEFluid flow, inter-related with heat exchanger geometry, can cause heat exchanger tubes to vibrate.This phenomenon is highly complex and the present state-of-the-art is such that the solution to thisproblem is difficult to define. This section defines the basic data which should be considered whenevaluatin potential flow induced vibration problems associated with heat exchangers. When.potentiai low Induced vibration problems are requested to be evaluated, the relationships presented7in this section and/or other methods may be used. Due to the complexity of the problem, the TEMAguarantee does not cover vibration damage,
V-l.2 GENERAL
Damaging tube vibration can occur under certain conditions of shell side flow relative to baffleconfiguration and unsupported tube span. The maximum unsupported tube spans in TableRCB-4.52 do not consider potential flow induced vibration problems. In those cases, where theanalysis indicates the probability of destructive vibration, the user should refer to Paragraph V-13.
,~v-2 VIBRAT ION AMAGE PASTERNS
Mechanical failure of tubes resulting from flow induced vibration may occur in various forms. Damage canresult from any of the following independent conditions, or combinations thereof.
V-2.1 COLLISION DAMAGEImpact of the tubes against each other or against the vessel wall. due to large amplitudes of thevibrating tube, can result in failure. The impacted area of the tube develo s the characteristic,flattened, boat shape spot, generally at the mid-span of the unsupported ength. The tube wallPeventually wears thin, causing failure.
V-2.2 BAFFLE DAMAGE
Baffle tube holes require a manufacturing clearance (see Paragraph RCB-4.2) over the tube outerdiameter to facilitate fabrication. When large fluid forces are present, the tube can impact the bafflehole causing thinning of the tube wall in a circumferential, uneven manner, usually the width of thebaffle thickness. Continuous thinning over a period of time results in tube failure.
V-2.3 TtiBESHEtiT CLAMPING EFFECT
Tubes may be expanded into the tubesheet to minimize the crevice between the outer.$be wail andthe tubesheet hole. The natural frequency of the tube span adjacent to the tubesheet IS Increased bythe clamping effect. However, the stresses due to any lateral deflection of the tube are alsomaximum at the location where the tube emerges from the tubesheet, contributing to possible tubebreakage.
V-2.4 MATERIAL DEFECT PROPAGATION
Designs which were determined to be free of harmful vibrations will contain tubes that vibrate withvery small amplitude due to the baffle tube hole clearances and the flexibility of the tube,span. Suchlow level stress fluctuations are harmless in homogeneous material. Flaws contained wlthin thematerial and strategically oriented with respect to the stress field, can readily propagate and actuatetube failure. Corrosion and erosion can add to such failure mechanisms.
V-2.5 ACOUSTIC VIBRATION
Acoustic resonance is due to gas column oscillation and is excted by phased vortex shedding., Theoscillation creates an acoustic vibration of a standing wave type. The generated sound wave will notaffect the tube bundle unless the acoustic resonant frequency approaches the tube naturalfrequency, althou h the heat exchanger shell and the attached piping may vibrate, accompaniedwith loud noise. 8hen the acoustic resonant frequency approaches the tube natural frequency, anytendency toward tube vibration will be accentuated with possible tube failure.
V-3 FAILURE REGIONSTube failures have been reported in nearly all locations within a heat exchanger. Locations of relativelyflexible tube spans and/or high flow velocities are regions of primaty concern.
Standards Of The Tubular Exchanger Manufacturers Association 95
SECTION 6 FLOW INDUCED VIBRATION
V-3.1 U-BENDS
Outer rows of U-bends have a lower natural frequency of vibration and, therefore, are moresusceptible to flow induced vibration failures than the inner rows.
V-3.2 NOZZLE ENTRANCE AND EXIT AREA
Impingement plates, large outer tube limits and small nozzle d&net&s can contribute to restrictedentrance and exit areas. These restricted areas usually create high local velocities which can resultin producing damaging flow induced vibration.
,V-3.3 TUBESHEET REGION
Unsupported tube spans adjacent to the tubesheet are frequently longer than those in the baffledregion of the heat exchanger, and result in lower natural frequencies. Entrance and exit areas arecommon to this region. The possible high local velocities, in conjunction with the lower naturalfrequency, make this a region of primary concern in preventing damaging vibrations.
V-3.4 BAFFLE REGION
Tubes located in baffle windows have unsupported spans equal to multiples of the baffle spacing.Long unsupported tube spans result in reduced natural frequency of vibration and have a greatertendency to vibrate.
V-3.5 OBSTRUCTIONS
Any obstruction to flow such as tie rods, sealing strips and impingement plates may cause highlocalized velocities which can initiate vibration in the immediate vicinity of the obstruction.

V-5 NATURAL FREQUENCY
V-5.1 GENERAL
Most heat exchangers have multiple baffle supports and varied individual unsupported spans.Calculation of the natural frequency of the heat exchanger tube is an essential step in estimating itspotential for flow induced vibration failure. The current state-of-the-art flow induced vibrationcorrelations are not sophisticated enough to warrant treating the multi-span tube vibration problem(or mode shapes other than the fundamental) in one comprehensive analysis. Therefore, thepotential for vibration is evaluated for each individual unsupported span, with the velocity and naturalfrequency considered being that of the unsupported span under examination. For more complexmode shapes and multi-spans of unequal lengths, see Paragraph V-14 Reference (10).
V-5.2 FACTORS AFFECTING NATURAL FREQUENCY
The individual unsupported span natural frequency is affected by:
(1) Tube elastic and inertial properties and tube geometry.
(2) Span shape.
(3) Type of support at each end of the unsupported span.
(4) Axial loading on the tube unsupported span. (see Paragraph V-6)
V-5.21 SPAN SHAPESThe basic span shapes are the straight span and the U-bend span.
V-5.22 SPAN SUPPORTSThe common support conditions are:
( I) Fixed at the tubesheet and simply supported at the baffle.
(2) Simply supported at each baffle.
The baffle supports have clearances which render them non-linear when analyzed as asupport. The tubesheet is not rigid and, therefore, the “built-in” assumption IS onlyapproximate. These approximations are known to have minor effects on the calculatednatural frequency.
V-5.3 FUNDAMENTAL NATURAL FREQUENCY CALCULATION
The value of the fundamental natural frequency of a tube unsupported span can be calculated for thecombinations of span shape and end support conditions using Table V-5.3

resent in a heat exchanger shell. Various amounts of fluid bypass theclearances between baffles and shell, or tube and baffle tube holes.
Until methods are developed to accurately calculate local fluid velocities, the designer may useaverage crossflow velocities based on available empirical methods.
V-9.2 REFERENCE CROSSFLOW VELOCITY
The crossflow velocity in the bundle varies from span to span, from row to row within a span, andfrom tube to tube within a row. The reference crossflow velocity is calculated for each region ofinterest (see Paragraph V-3) and is based on the average velocity across a representative tube row inthat region.
The presence of pass partition lanes aligned in the crossflow direction, clearance between the bundleand the shell, tube-to-baffle hole annular clearances, etc. reduce the net flow rate of the shell sidefluid in crossflow. This should be considered in computing the reference crossflow velocity.
V-9.21 REFERENCE CROSSFLOW VELOCITY CALCULATIONS
The following method of calculating a reference crossflow velocity takes into account f$idbypass and leakage which are related to heat exchanger geometry. The method is valrd forsingle phase shell side fluid with single segmental baffles in TEMA E shells. Other methodsmay be used to evaluate reference crossflow velocities.

v-e.3 SEAL STr3fP.SSeal strips are often usad to help block the circumferential bypass space between a tube bundle andshell, or other bypass lanes. Seal strips force fluid from the bypass stream back into the bundle.This increases the reference crossflow velocity and should be considered in a vibration analysis.
Local fluid velocity in the vicinity of seal strips may be significantly higher than the average crossflowvelocity. (See Paragraph V-14, Reference 6.)

v-e.4 PASS LANES PARALLEL TO FLOW
When pass lanes are oriented parallel to flow (at 9O”to the baffle cut) they create a relatively lowresistance path for fluid to follow. The net effect is for less fluid to cross the tube bundle, resulting ina lower average crossflow velocity. However, tubes adjacent to these lanes may be subjected tohigh local velocities. The number and width of these lanes should be considered when the referencecrossflow velocity is calculated.

V-l 1 VIBRATION AMPLITUDE
V-11.1 GENERAL
There are four basic flow induced vibration mechanisms that can occur in a tube bundle. These arethe fluidelastic instability, vortex shedding, turbulent buffeting,, and acoustic resonance. The firstthree mechanisms are accompanied by a tube vibration ampktude while acoustic resonance causesa loud acoustic noise with virtually no increase in tube amplitude.
Fluidelastic instability is the most damaging in that it results in extremely large amplitudes of vibrationwith ultimate damage patterns as described in Paragraph V-2. The destgn approach in this case is toavoid the fluidelastic instability situation thereby avoiding the accompanying large amplitude ofvibration (see Paragraph V-10). Vortex shedding may be a problem when there is a frequency matchwith the natural frequency of the tube. Vibration due to vortex shedding is expected whenJ.<Zf.,,wheref,,= 12Sk/d.(see Paragraph V-12.2). Only then should the amplitude becalculated. This frequency match may result in a vibration amplitude which can be damaging totubas in the vicinity of the shell inlet and outlet connections. Vortex shedding degenerates into broadband turbulence and both mechanisms are intertwined deep inside the bundle. Vortex shedding andturbulent buffeting vibration amplitudes are tolerable within specified limits.and respective limits are shown below.

SECTION 6 FLOW INDUCED VIBRATION
V-12 ACOUSTIC VIBRATION
Acoustic resonance is due to a gas column oscillation. Gas column oscillation can be excited byphased vortex shedding or turbulent buffeting. Oscillation normally occurs perpendicular to both thetube axis and flow direction. When the natural acoustic frequency of the shell approaches theexciting frequency of the tubes, a coupling may occur and kinetic energy in the flow stream isconverted into acoustic pressure waves. Acoustic resonance may occur independently ofmechanical tube vibration.

V-12.5 CORRECTIVE ACTION
There are several means available to correct a resonant condition, but most could have some effecton exchanger performance. The simplest method is to install deresonating baffle(s) in the exchangerbundle to break the wave(s) at or near the antinode( This can be done without significantlyaffecting the shell side flow pattern. In shell and tube exchangers, the standing wave forms arelimited to the first or the second mode. Failure to check both modes can result in acousticresonance, even with deresonating baffles.

V-13 DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
SECTlOti 6
Many parameters acting independently or in conjunction with each other can affect the flow inducedvibration analysis. One must be cognizant of these parameters and their effects should beaccounted for in the overall heat exchanger design.
V-13.1 TUBE DIAMETERUse of the largest reasonable tube diameter consistent with practical thermal and hydraulicdesign economics is desirable. Larger diameters increase the moment of inertia, therebyeffectively increasing the sttffness of the tube for a given length.
V-13.2 UNSUPPORTED TUBE SPANThe unsupported tube span is the most significant factor affecting induced vibrations. Theshorter the tube span, the greater its resistance to vibration.The thermal and hydraulic design of an exchanger is significant in determining the type ofshell, baffle design and the unsupported tube length. For example, compared to single passshells, a divided flow shell will result in approximately one-half the span length for an equalcrossflow velocity. TEMA type X shells provide the opportunity to use multiple support platesto reduce the unsupported tube span, without appreciably affecting the crossfiow velocity.Corn ared to the conventional segmental baffle flow arrangement, multi-segmental baffles~sign il?scantly reduce the tube unsupported span for the same shell side Row rate and pressuredrop.“No tubes in window” flow arrangement baffles provide support to all tubes at all bafflelocations and also permit the use of multiple intermediate supports without affecting thecrossflow velocity while reducing the unsupported tube span.
V-13.3 TUBE PITCHLarger pitch-to-tube diameter ratios provide increased ligament areas which result in areduced crossffow velocity for a given unsupported tube span, or a reduced unsupportedtube span for a given crossflow velocity.The increased tube to tube spacing reduces the likelihood of mid-span collision damage andalso decreases the hydrodynamic mass coefficient given in Figure V-7.1 1.
V-13.4 ENTRANCE/EXIT AREASEntrance and exit areas are generally recognized to be particularly susceptible to damage in
vibration prone exchangers.Entrance and exit velocities should be calculated and compared to critical velocities to avoidvibration of the spans in question. It should be noted that compliance with ParagraphRCB-4.62 alone is not enough to insure protection from flow induced vibration at theentrance/exit regions of the bundle.Consideration may be given to the use of partial supports to reduce unsupported tube spansin the entrance/exft regions. Sufficient untubed space may have to be provided at the shellinlet/outlet connections to reduce entrance/exit velocities. Impingement plates should besized and positioned so as not to overly restrict the area available for flow. The use ofdistribution belts can be an affective means of lowering entrance/exit velocities by allowingthe shell side fluid to enter/exit the bundle at several locations.
V-13.5 U-BEND REGIONSSusceptibility of U-bends to damaging vibration may be reduced by optimum location ofadjacent baffles in the straight tube legs and/or use of a s ecial bend support device.Consideration may also be given to protecting the bends f:om Row induced vibration byappropriately locating the shell connection and/or adjacent baffles.
V-13.6TUBlNG MATERIAL AND THICKNESSThe natural frequency of an unsupported tube span is affected by the dastic modulus of thetube. High values of elastic moduli inherent in ferritic steels and austenitic stainless alloysprovide greater resistance to vibratory flexing than materials such as aluminum and brasswith relatively low elastic moduli. Tube metallurgy and wall thickness also affect the dampingcharacteristic of the tube.
Standards Of The Tubular Exchanger Manufacturers Association 121
SECTION 6 FLOW INDUCED VIBRATION
V-13.7 BAFFLE THICKNESS AND TUBE HOLE SIZEIncreasing the baffle thickness and reducing the tube-to-baffle hole clearance increases thesystem damping (see Paragraph V-8) and reduces the magnitude of the forces acting on thetube-to-baffle hole interface.
The formulae in this section do not quantitatively account for the effects of increasing thebaffle thickness, or tightening of the baffle hole clearance.
V-13.8 OMISSION OF TUBES
Omission of tubes at predetermined critical locations within the bundle may be employed toreduce vibration potential. For instance, tubes located on baffle cut lines sometimesexperience excessive damage in vibration prone units; therefore, selective removal of tubesalong baffle cut lines may be advantageous.
V-13.9 TUBE AXIAL LOADINGThe heat exchanger designer must recognize the potential adverse impact on vibration bycompressive axial loading of tubes due to pressure and/or temperature conditions. This isparticularly significant for tubes in single pass, fixed tubesheet exchangers where the hot fluidis in the tube side, and in all multiple tube pass fixed tubesheet exchangers. The use of anexpansion joint in such cases may result in reduction of the tube compressive stress. (SeeParagraph V-6.)

T-2 FOULING
T-2.1 TYPES OF FOUUNG
Several unique types of fouling mechanisms are currently recognized. They are individuallycomplex, can occur independently or simultaneously, and their rates of development are governed
: by physical and chemical relationships dependent on operating conditions. The major foulingmechanisms are:
Precipitation foulingParticulate fouling
Chemical reaction foulingCorrosion foulingBiological fouling

SECTION 7 THERMAL RELATIONS
T-2.2 EFFECTS OF FOULING
The calculation of the overall heat transfer coefficient (see Paragraph T-l .3) contains the terms toaccount for the thermal resistances of the fouling layers on the inside and outside heat transfersurfaces. These fouling layers are known to increase in thickness with time as the heat exchanger isoperated. Fouling layers normally have a lower thermal conductivity than the fluids or the tubematerial, thereby increasing the overall thermal resistance,
In order that heat exchangers shall have sufficient surface to maintain satisfactory performance innormal operation, with reasonable service time between cleanings, it is important in design toprovide a fouling allowance appropriate to the expected operating and maintenance condition,
T-2.3 CONSIDERATIONS IN EVALUATING FOULING RESISTANCE
The determination of appropriate fouling resistance values involves both physical and economicfactors, many of which vary from user to user, even for identical services. When these factors areknown, they can be used to adjust typical base values tabulated in the RGP section of thesestandards.
T-2.31 PHYSICAL CONSIDERATIONS
Typical physical factors influencing the determination of fouling resistances are:
Fluid properties and the propensity for foulingHeat exchanger geometry and orientationSurface and fluid bulk temperaturesLocal fluid velocitiesHeat transfer processFluid treatmentCathodic protection
T-2.32 ECONOMIC CONSIDERATIONS
Typical economic factors influencing the determination of appropriate fouling resistances are:
Frequency and amount of cleaning costsMaintenance costsOperating and production costsLonger periods of time on streamFluid pumping costsDepreciation ratesTax ratesInitial cost and variation with sizeShut down costsOut-of-service costs
T-2.4 DESIGN FOULING RESISTANCESThe best design fouling resistances, chosen with all physical and economic factors properlyevaluated, will result in a minimum cost based on fixed charges of the initial investment (whichincrease with added fouling resistance) and on cleaning and down-time expenses (which decreasewith added fouling resistance). By the very nature of the factors involved, the manufacturer isseldom in a position to determine optimum foulinpast experience and current or projected costs, ?I
resistances. The user, therefore, on the basis ofs
particular services and operating conditions.ould specify the design fouling resistances for his
In the absence of specific data for setting properresistances as described in the previous paragraphs, the user may be guided by the values tabulatedin the RGP section of these standards. In the case of inside surface fouling, these values must bemultiplied by the outside/inside surface ratio, as indicated in Equation T-l .3.

Excessive fluid leakage through the clearance between the cross baffles and the shell or between alongitudinal baffle and the shell can significantly alter the axial temperature profile. This conditionmay result in significant degradation of the effective mean temperature difference. The followingreferences may be used for further information on this subject:

T-3.2 CORRECTION FOR MULTIPASS FLOW
In multipass heat exchangers, where there is a combination of cocurrent and countercurrent flow inalternate passes, the mean temperature difference is less than the logarithmic mean calculated forcountercurrent flow and greater than that based on cocurrent flow. The correct mean temperaturedifference may be evaluated as the product of the logarithmic mean for countercurrent flow and anLMTD correction factor, F. Figures T-3.2A to T3.2M inclusive give values for F as a function of theheat capacity rate ratio R and the required temperature effectiveness P. These charts are based onthe assumption that the conditions listed in Paragraph T-3.1 are applicable. Caution should beobserved when applying F factors from these charts which lie on the steeply sloped portions of thecurves. Such a situation indicates that thermal performance will be extremely sensitive to smallchanges in operating conditions and that performance prediction may be unreliable.
Pass configurations for Figures T-3.2A through T-3.2H are stream symmetric; therefore, t and T maybe taken as the cold and hot fluid temperatures, respectively, regardless of passage through the tubeside or shell side. For non-stream symmetric configurations represented by Figures T-3.21 throughT-3.2M, t and T must be taken as the tube side and the shell side fluid temperatures, respectively.
The following references may be useful in determining values of F for various configurations andconditions.

T-4 MEAN METALTEMPERATURES OF SHELL AND TUBES
T-4.1 SCOPE
This paragraph outlines the basic method for determination of mean shell and tube metaltemperatures. These temperatures have a pronounced influence in the design of fixed tubesheetexchangers. Knowledge of mean metal temperatures is necessary for determining tubesheetthickness, shell and tube axial stress levels, and flexible shell element requirements. This paragraphprovides the basis for determining the differential thermal expansion term, D L, required for thecalculation of equivalent differential expansion pressure, P.(see Paragraph RCB-7.161).
T-4.2 DEFINITIONS
T-4.21 MEAN METAL TEMPERATURE
The mean metal temperature of either the shell or tubes is the temperature taken at the metalthickness midpoint averaged with respect to the exchanger tube length. For the case ofintegrally finned tubes, the temperature at the prime tube metal thickness midpoint applies.The fin metal temperature should not be weighted with the prime tube metal temperature
T-4.22 FLUID AVERAGE TEMPERATURE
The shell or tube fluid average temperature is the bulk shell or tube fluid temperatureaveraged with respect to the exchanger tube length.
T-4.3 RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN MEAN METAL TEMPERATURES AND FLUID AVERAGETEMPERATURES
T-4.31 SHELL MEAN METAL TEMPERATURE
The shell mean metal temperature, generally assumed to be equal to the shell fluid averagetemperature, is given by:
T,=Y
where
TM = Shell mean metal temperature, O F
5 = Shell fluid average temperature, ’ F
This assumption is valid for cases without abnormal rates of heat transfer between the shelland its surroundings. If significant heat transfer to or from the shell could occur,determination of the effect on the shell metal temperature should be made. In general, mosthigh or low temperature externally insulated exchangers and moderate temperaturenon-insulated exchangers meet the above assumption.

THERMAL RELATIONS SECTION 7
T-4.32 TUBE MEAN METAL TEMPERATURE
The tube mean metal temperature is dependent not only on the tube fluid averagetemperature, but also the shell fluid average temperature, the shell and tube heat transfercoefficients, shell and tube fouling resistances, and tube metal resistance to heat transfer,according to the following relationship:
where
I M = Tube mean metal temperature, Q F
i = Tube side fluid average temperature, O F (see Paragraph T-4.4)

T-4.41 GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS
Fluid average temperatures in shell and tube heat exchangers are affected by the following:
(1) Shell and tube fluid terminal temperatures
(2) Shell and tube fluid temperature profiles with respect to enthalpy (the followingmethods assume linear profiles)
(3) Variable heat transfer rates with respect to exchanger length (the following methodsassume a constant heat transfer rate through the length of the unit)

The average shell fluid temperature may be determined from the following equation:

The average tube fluid temperature may then be determined from the following equation:
i=TiLMTD(F’)
where
F = L M T D Correction Factor
T-4.46 OTHER CASES
For cases involving nonlinear temperature-enthalpy profiles and/or pass geometries otherthan those given above, other methods must be used to establish mean metal temperatures.However, with the assumption of constant overall heat transfer rate, the following relatronshtpalways applies:
T-i= *LMTD(F‘)
If one fluid average temperature can be established accurately, knowing the effective meantemperature difference allows the other to be determined.
Standards Of The Tubular Exchanger Manufacturers Association 131
SECTION 7 THERMAL RELATIONS
T-4.5 SELECTION OF THE DESIGN CASE
All foreseeable modes of operation should be considered when specifying the metal temperatures tobe used for calculation of the equivalent differential expansion pressure. Consideration should begiven to the following:
(1) Normal operation, as specified by purchaser, under fouled conditions at the design flow ratesand terminal temperatures
(2) Operation at less than the design fouling allowance (under such conditions, the purchasershould supply details in regard to anticipated operating parameters)
Other operating conditions to which the equipment may be subjected, as specified by the purchaser,may include, but are not necessarily limited to:
(1) Alternate flow rates and/or terminal temperatures as may be the case during start-up, shutdown,variable plant loads., etc.
(2) Flow of a process fluid or clean fluid through one side, but not the other
The largest positive and negative values of equivalent differential expansion pressure generallycorrespond with the cases under which the largest positive and negative differential thermal growthsoccur: an exception being if varying values of material modulii of elasticity alter the comparison.
The differential thermal growth between the shell and tubes is determined as follows:
aL=L,(a,[T,-70]-cx,[t.-70])
where
n L = Differential thermal growth between the shell and tubes, inches
L, =Tube length, face-to-face of tubesheets, inches
a, =Coefficient of thermal expansion of the shell, inches/inch/ o F (see Table D-l 1)
CL r = Coefficient of thermal expansion of the tubes, inches/inch/ D F (see Table D-i 1)
T-4.6 ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS
T-4.61 SERIES ARRANGEMENTS
Individual exchangers in series arrangements are generally subjected to different temperatureconditions. Each individual exchanger should be evaluated separately. Alternately, all couldbe designed for the most severe conditions in the series.
T-4.62 OTHER MODES OF OPERATIONIf fiied tubesheet heat exchangers are to be operated under conditions differing from thosefor which the initial design was checked, it is the purchaser’s responsibility to determine thatsuch operation will not lead to a condition of overstress. This requires a full re-evaluation ofrequired tubesheet thickness, shell and tube longitudinal stresses, tube-to-tubesheet jointloads, and flexible shell elements based on the new operating conditions.

D-6TABLES FOR
PRESSURE-TEMPERATURE RATINGSFOR VALVES, FITIINGS, AND FLANGES
INTRODUCTORY m,,,.
1. Products used within the jurisdiction of the ASME Boiler and PressureVessel Code and the ASME Standard for pressure piping are subject to themaximum temperature and stress limitations upon the material and piping statedtherein.
2. The ratings at -20 o F to 100 OF, given for the materials covered on pages194 to 229 inclusive, shall also apply at lower temperatures. The ratings for lowtemperature service of the cast and forged materials listed in ASTM A352 andA350 shall be taken the same as the -20 o F to 100 o F ratings for carbon steel onpages 194 to 229 inclusive.
Some of the materials listed in the rating tables undergo a decrease in impactresistance at temperatures lower than -20 ’ F to such an extent as to be unable tosafely resist shock loadings, sudden changes of stress or high stressconcentrations. Therefore, products that are to operate at temperatures below-20 o F shall conform to the rules of the applicable Codes under which they are tobe used.
3. The pressure-temperature ratings in the tables apply to all productscovered by this ASME Standard. Valves conforming to the requirements of thisASME Standard must, in other respects, merit these ratings.
All ratings are the maximum allowable nonshock pressures (psig) at thetabulated temperature degrees F) and may be interpolated between thetemperatures shown. iJhe pnmary service pressure ratings (150,, 300, 400,600,900, 1500,250O) are those at the head of the tables and shown rn bold face type inthe body of the tables.
Temperatures (degrees F) shown in the tables, used in determining theserating tables, were temperatures on the inside of the pressure retaining structure.
The use of these ratings require gaskets conforming to the requirements ofParagraph 5.4 of ASME B16.5(1996). The user is responsible for selecting gasketsof dimensions and materials to withstand the required bolt loading withoutinjurious crushing, and suitable for the service conditions in all other respects.Reference: American Socieby’of Mechanical En ineers Standard Steel Pipe Flanges and FlangedFittings (ASME Standard 816.5-(1996 and 1998 ) reprnted with the permission of The American3Society of Mechanical Engineers, United Engineering Center, 345 E. 47th Street, New York, NY10017.

RECOMMENDED GOOD PRACTICE SECTION 10
For purposes of design, wind and seismic forces are assumed to be negligible unless the purchaserspecifically details such forces in the inquiry.
When such requirements are specified by the purchaser, the designer should consider their effectson thevarious components of the heat exchanger. These forces should be evaluated in the designof the heat exchanger for the pressure containing components, the heat exchanger suppotts and thedevice used to attach the heat exchanger supports to theanchor points. Methods used for thedesign analysis are beyond the scope of these Standards; however, the designer can refer to thesdected references listed below.

RGP-RCB-7 TUBESHEETS
RGP-ACB-7.2 SNELL AND TUBE LONGITUDINAL STRESSES, FIXED TUBESHEETEXCHANGERS
The design of fixed tubesheets in accordance with Paragraph RCB-7.16 is based, in part, upon thetube bundle providing elastic support to the tubesheets throughout the tubed area. It is thereforeimportant to insure that the tubes can provide sufficient staying action against tensile forces andsufficient stability against compressive forces. Paragraph RCB-7.2 provides rules to calculate thetube loads at the periphery of the bundle only. The tubes at the interior of the bundle are notconsidered, but can become loaded both in tension and compression. Tensile forces are generallynot a problem if the requirements of Paragraph RCB-7.2 are met. Compressive forces might,however, create unstable conditions for tubes at the interior of the bundle. Typical conditions thatcan cause this are:
Loading: Tube side pressure and/or differential thermal expansion where the shell, ifunrestrained, would lengthen more than the tubes. (Positive P d per ParagraphRCB-7.161)
Geometry: Flexible tubesheet systems. Generally, those that are simply supported at the edge(F = 1 per Paragraph RCB-7.132) and have a value of F ,(Paragaph RCB-7.161)greaterthan 2.5.

The allowable tube stresses and loads presented in Paragraph RCB-7.2 are intended for use with ananalysis considering only the peripheral tubes. These allowable stresses and loads can be modified ifthe tubes at the interior of the bundle are included in the analysis. Engineering judgement should beused to determlne that the bundle can adequately stay the tubesheets against tensile loadings andremain stable against compressive loadings.

RGP-RCB-7.4 TUBE HOLES IN TUBESHEETS
RGP-RCB-7.43 TUBE HOLE FINISH
Tube hole finish affects the mechanical strength and leak tightness of an expandedtube-to-tubesheet joint. In general:
(I) A rough tube hole provides more mechanical strength than a smooth tube hole. This isinfluenced by a complex relationship of modulus of elasticity, yield strength and hardnessof the materials being used.
(2) A smooth tube hole does not provide the mechanical strength that a rough tube holedoes, but it can provide a pressure tight joint at a lower level of wall reduction.
(3) Very light wall tubes require a smoother tube hole finish than heavier wall tubes.
(4) Significant longitudinal scratches can provide leak paths through an expandedtube-to-tubesheet joint and should therefore be removed.
RGP-RCBJ.5 TUBE WALL REDUCTION

RGP-RCB-9.21 FLAT CHANNEL COVER DEFLECTION
The recommended limit for channel cover deflection is intended to prevent excessive leakagebetween the cover and the pass partition plate. Many factors govern the choice of design deflectionlimits. Some of these factors are: number of tube side passes; tube side pressure drop; size ofexchanger; elastic springback of gasket material; effect of interpass leakage on thermalperformance; presence or absence of gasket retaining grooves: and leakage characteristics of thetube side fluid.The method shown in Paragraph RCB-9.21 for calculating deflection does not consider:
(1) The restraint offered by the portion of the cover outside the gasket load reaction diameter.
(2) Addtional restraint provided by some types of construction such as full face gasket controlledmetal-to-metal contact, etc.
(3) Cover bow due to thermal gradient across the cover thickness.

evaluated as a combination of forces and moments as specified by the purchaser.
Nozzle reactions from piping are transmitted to the pressure containment wall of the heat exchanger,and could result in an over-stressed condition in this area. The effects of piping loads transmittedthrough main body flanges, supports and other components should also be considered.

When designing a large diameter, low pressure flange, numerous considerations as described inAppendix S of the Code should be reviewed in order to reduce the amount of flange rotation.Another point of consideration is the fact that this type of flange usually has a large actual bolt area

compared to the minimum requiraci area; the extra bolt area combined with the potential bolt stresscan overload the flange such that excessive deflection and permanent set are produced. Methodsare available to determine the initial bolt stress required in order to achieve a leak-free bolted joint.Once the required bolt stress is known, flange rotation and stress can then be calculated and, ifnecessary, the designer can take further action to reduce rotation and/or stresses.

RGP-T-2 FOULING
RECOMMENDED GOOD PRACTICE SECTION 10
RGP-T-2.1 TYPES OF FOULINGCurrently five different types of fouling mechanisms are recognized. They are individually complex,often occurring simultaneously, and their effects may increase pressure drop, accelerate corrosionand decrease the overall heat transfer coefficient.
(1) Precipitation Fouling
Crystallization is one of the most common types of preci itation fouling. It occurs in manyprocess streams, cooling water and chemical streams. 8rystallization scale forms as the resultof over-saturation of a relatively insoluble salt. The most common, calcium carbonate, forms onheat transfer surfaces as a result of the thermal decomposition of the bicarbonate ion and thesubsequent reaction with calcium ions.
(2) Particulate Fouling
Sedimentation is the most common form of particulate fouling. Particles of clay, sand, silt, rust,etc. are initially suspended in the fluid and form deposits on the heat transfer surfaces.Sedimentation is frequently superimposed on crystallization and possibly acts as a catalyst forcertain types of chemical reaction fouling.
(3) Chemica; keaction Fouling
Surface temperatures and theP.
resence of oxidation promoters are known to significantlyinfluence the rate of build up o thtsfoultng type. Coking, the hard crust deposit of hydrocarbonsformed on high temperature surfaces, is a common form of this type of fouling.
(4) Corrosion Fouling
Iron oxide, the most common form of corrosion product, is the result of an electrochemicalreaction and forms as a scale on iron-containing, exposed sutfaces of the heat exchanger. Thisscale produces an added thermal resistance to the base metal of the heat transfer surface.
(5) Biological Fouling
Organic material growth develops on heat transfer surfaces in contact with untreated water suchas sea, river, or lake water. In most cases, it will be combined or superimposed on other typesof foulmg such as crystallization and sedimentation. Biological growth such as algae, fungt,slime, and corrosive bacteria represent a potentially detrimental form of fouling. Often thesemicro-organisms provide a sticky holding medium for other types of fouling which wouldotherwise not adhere to clean surfaces.
RGP-T-2.2 EFFECTOF FOULING
There are different approaches to provide an allowance for anticipated fouling in the design of shelland tube heat exchangers. The net result is to provide added heat transfer surface area. Thisgenerally means that the exchanger is oversized for clean operation and barely adequate forconditions just before it should be cleaned. Although many heat exchangers operate for yearswithout cleaning, it is more common that they must be cleaned periodically. Values of the foulingresistances to be specified are intended to reflect the values at the point in time just before theexchanger is to be cleaned. The maior uncertainty is the assignment of realistic values of the foulingresistances. Further, these thermal resistances only address part of the impact of fouling as there isan increase in the hydraulic resistance as well; however, this is most often ignored. Fouling iscomplex, dynamic, and in time, degrades the performance of a heat exchanger.
‘~, ,“‘:, The use of thermal resistance permits the assignment of the majority of the fouling fo the side wherefouling predominates. It also permtts examination of the relative thermal resistance mtroduced by the
‘~ different terms in the overall heat transfer coefficient equation. These can signal, to the designer,where there are potential design changes to reduce the effect of fouling. It also permits thedetermination of the amount of heat transfer surface area that has been assigned for fouling. Higherfouling resistances are sometimes inappropriately specified to provide safety factors to account foruncertainties in the heat transfer calculation, the actual operatinexpansion. These uncertainties may well exist and should be re1
conditions, and/or possible plantected in the deagn, but they should
not be masked in the fouling resistances. They should be cleariy identffied as appropriate factors inthe design calculations.
Standards Of The Tubular Exchanger Manufacturers Association 283
SECTION 10 RECOMMENDED GOOD PRACTICE
Another inappropriate ap roach to heat exchanger design is to arbitrarily increase the heat transfersurface area to allow for ouling. This over-surfacing avoids the use of the appropriate foulingPresistances. In effect, the fouling for the exchanger is combined and no longer can be identified asbelonging to one side or the other.In order to examine the effect of fouling on the pressure drop, it is necessary for the purchaser tosupply the anticipated thicknesses of each of the fouling layers.
RGP-T-2.31 PHYSICAL CONSIDERATIONSA) Properties Of Fluids And Usual Propensity For Fouling
The most important consideration is the fluid and the conditions when it produces fouling.At times, a process modification can result in conditions that are less likely to causefouling.
B) Surface And Bulk TemperaturesFor many kinds of fouling, as the temperatures increase, the amount of fouling increases.Lower temperatures produce slower fouling build-up and deposits that often are easier toremove.
C) Local VelocitiesNormally, keeping the velocities high reduces the tendency to foul. Velocities on the tubeside are limited by erosion, and on the shell side by flow-induced vibration. Stagnant andrecirculation regions on the shell side lead to heavy fouling.
D) Tube Material, Configuration And Surface FinishThe selection of tube material is significant when it comes to corrosion. Some kinds ofbiological fouling can be lessened by copper-bearing tube materials. There can bedifferences between finned and plain tubing. Surface finish has been shown to influencethe rate of fouling and the ease of cleaning.
E) Heat Exchanger Geometry And OrientationThe geometry of a particular heat exchanger can influence the unfformlty of the lows onthe tube side and the shell side. The ease of cleaning can be greatly influenced by theorientation of the heat exchanger.
F) Heat Transfer ProcessThe fouling resistances for the same fluid can be considerably different depending uponwhether heat is being transferred through sensible heating or cooling, boiling, orcondensing.
G) Fluid Purity And Freedom From ContaminationMost fluids are prone to have inherent impuriiies that can deposit out as a fouling lsyer, oract as catalysts to the fouling processes. It is often economically attractive to elimrnatethe fouling constituents by filters.
H) Fluid Treatment To Prevent Corrosion And Biological GrowthFluid treatment is commonly carried out to prevent corrosion and/or biological growth. Ifthese treatments are neglected, rapid fouling can occur.
I) Fluid Treatment To Reduce FoulingThere are additives that can disperse the fouling material so it does not deposit. Addftivesmay also alter the structure of the fouling layers that deposit so that they are easilyremoved. The use of these treatments is a product quality and economic decision.
J) Cathodic ProtectionOne of the effective ways to reduce the possibility of corrosion and corrosion fouling is toprovide cathodic protection in the design.
284 Standards Of The Tubular Exchanger Manufacturers Association
RECOMMENDED GOOD PRACTICE SECTION 10
K) Planned Cleaning Method And Desired Frequency
It is important that the cleaning method be planned at the design stage of the heatexchanger. Considerations in design involving cleaning are whether it will be doneon-line, off-line, bundle removed or in place, whether it will involve corrosive fluids, etc..Access, clearances, valving, and piping also must be considered to permit ease ofcleaning. The cleaning method may require special safety requirements, which should beincorporated in the design.
L) Place The More Fouling Fluid On The Tube Side
There are two benefits from placing the more fouling fluid on the tube side. There is lessdanger of low velocity or stagnant flow regions on the tube side, and, it is generally easierto clean the tube side than,the shell side. It is often possible to clean the tube side withtfyfexchanger rn place whrle it may be necessary to remove the bundle to clean the shell
RGP-T-2.32 ECONOMIC CONSIDERATIONS
Planned fouling prevention, maintenance and cleaning make possible lower allowances forfouling, but do involve a commitment to ongoing costs. The amount and frequency ofcleaning varies considerably with user and operation.
The most si nificantthat should % ,d”
rameters involved in deciding upon the amount of fouling allowancee prow ed are the operational and economic factors that change with time.
New fluid treatments, changing first costs and operating costs, different cleaning proceduresand the degree of payback for longer periods of being on stream should be some of the itemsevaluated in determining an appropriate fouling resistance. Failure to include the economicconsiderations may lead to unnecessary monetary penalties for fouling.
Companies concerned about fouling continually monitor the performance of their heatexchangers to establish fouling experience and develop their own guidelines for determiningthe appropriate fouling resistance to specify when purchasing new equipment.
Almost every source of cooling water needs to be treated before it is used for heat exchangerservice. The treatment ranges from simple biocide addition to control biological fouling, tosubstantial treatment of brackish water to render it suitable for use. The amount of treatmentmay be uneconomical and substitute sources of cooling must be sought. With today’stechnology, the quality of water can be improved to the point that fouling should be undercontrol as long as flow velocities are maintained and surface temperatures controlled.
RGP-T-2.4 DESIGN FOULING RESISTANCES (HR FT2 0 F/Btu)
The purchaser should attempt to select an optimal fouling resistance that will result in a minimumsum of fixed, shutdown and cleaning costs. The following tabulated values of fouling resistancesallow for oversizing the heat exchanger so that it will meet performance requirements withreasonable intervals between shutdowns and cleaning. These values do not recognize the timerelated behavior of fouling with regard to specific design and operational characteristics of particularheat exchangers.
