Dear Member!!

As you said, ASME code Sec VIII Div 1 it´s applicable to design heat exchangers, but from the point of view as a pressure vessel, that means the capacity of the equipment to contain the work fluid at operating condition of design (pressure, temperature, metal thickness, material and weld efficiency)

By the other hand, you have another factors to consider in the design as: number of tubes, diameter of tubes, longitudes, diameter, material of tubes. As a guide to define this parameters, there is the TEMA (Tubural Exchanger Manufacturers Association, Inc.) standards whose can be very useful.

Please visit http://www.tema.org/index.html to consult about software and codes

Dear experts,

Greetings of the day..!!!

This is regarding my query of applicability/restrictions of codes or standards on plate heat exchanger.

Which code/standard is applicable on plate heat exchangers for pressure/size/volume?

Is it ASME SEC VIII DIV 1 ? If yes, Any reference?

Thank you.

Best Regards

Sarang

Re: [MW:34105] SA266 GR4N 4 Cycle SPWHT

Hi, You are correct, Minimum refers to the one cycle for which this part will expose until final work shop PWHT. hence mill test certificate shall include this. Max. SPWHT, refers to additional cycles of heat treatment that are reserved for future repairs during equipment lifetime. Again, these simulated no. Of cycles shall be specified in MTC. The idea is we need to make sure that steel mechanical properties are not compromised upon exposure to multiple repairs (i e 4 cycles in your case). One could say, if steel is subjected to 4 cycles and is ok, then it should by defacto be good for one cycle, yet, this is wrong assumption cause mechanical problems and microstructure of materials varies accordingly based on no. Of cycles for which material will expose. This is apparent in alloy steel and especially for impact test values as an example. In your case, this forged CS with properties before PWHT can be understood to be " as forged" condition (i.e. Wit...

Heat tint (temper) colours on stainless steel surfaces heated in air // Heat tint

Introduction The colour formed when stainless steel is heated, either in a furnace application or in the heat affected zone of welds, is dependent on several factors that are related to the oxidation resistance of the steel. The heat tint or temper colour formed is caused by the progressive thickening of the surface oxide layer and so, as temperature is increased, the colours change. Oxidation resistance of stainless steels However, there are several factors that affect the degree of colour change and so there is no a single table of colour and temperature that represents all cases. The colours formed can only be used as an indication of the temperature to which the steel has been heated. Factors affecting the heat tint colours formed Steel composition The chromium content is the most important single factor affecting oxidation resistance. The higher the chromium, the more heat resistant the steel and so the development of the heat tint colou...
