Study upon Design Stress due to Pressure of Shell-and-Tube Type Heat Exchanger

원통다관식 열교환기의 압력 변화에 따른 설계 응력 연구

Shell-and-tube type heat exchangers are generally classified with fixed tube-sheet and floating tube-sheet heat exchangers. In this paper, we employed the fixed tube-sheet heat exchangers. We theoretically investigated the safety evaluation of our shell-tube heat exchanger by axial, bending and equivalent stress of fin tubes, tube plates, channels and shell. Design pressure ranges were chosen pressure($0.6{\sim}2\;MPa$) on tube side and 200 %(3 MPa) of Maximum pressure on shell side for safety evaluation of heat exchangers. This research will be useful for fabrication of heat exchangers to prevent against damage hazard of heat exchangers in operation.
