How do you define design pressure, design temperature, and corrosion allowance when Purchasing a Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger??

When purchasing a shell and tube heat exchanger, defining design pressure, design temperature, and corrosion allowance correctly is non-negotiable. These three values dictate the exchanger’s mechanical design, material selection, wall thickness, compliance with ASME or international codes, and ultimately its safety and service life. If these parameters are misjudged or left vague in procurement specifications, […]
